There is something special about exploring places where centuries of history sit right out in the open. I captured this view of Bolling Hall in Bradford, framing its mixture of medieval, Tudor, and Georgian architecture behind the quiet bare trees and old stone ruins.
Dating back over 600 years, this site has survived everything from the English Civil War to the changing seasons of Yorkshire. Standing here on a cool day, you can really feel the weight of the stories packed into those stone walls.
