This estate five miles east of Haworth became a country park when it was taken over by Bingley Urban District Council. The mature trees growing in these 550 acres were planted by the Ferrands, who lived here from the 17th to the 20th century. On the southern edge is the Druid’s Altar, a rocky outcrop high above the Aire Valley. The man-made Coppice Pond has Medieval roots and was reworked by Walker Ferrand in the 19th century. Come to feed the ducks but use oats instead of bread! Another Ferrand, Lady Blantyre would spend a lot of time at an overhanging rock on the estate, and this has been named in her honour, with a memorial stone erected by her son in law. Take a while to wander the venerable ash, oak, pine and larch woods, and if golf is your game, the 18-hole Bingley St Ives Course is also on the estate.

Spring you see carpets of bluebells, daffodils and the newly leafed trees, Summer it gets busier but the walks are still good, Autumn has the foliage and shapes and lots of cheeky squirrels, winter can be beautiful with the Frost's and silenced snows. The wooden carvings are more evident in the emptier woodlands, where there are many secluded walks.
