Site of former Elslack station, 1996
View NW at bridge over the course of the ex-Midland Skipton (to right) - Colne (to left) line, a useful cross-Pennine connecting line. The station had been below on the right and was closed as long ago as 3/3/52, but the line survived until 2/2/70.

The 'Tempest Arms', Elslack, Yorkshire
Many years ago, 'Mine Host' at the Tempest was the former Middlesex and England cricketer Peter Parfitt, who went on to supervise hospitality at the Headingley ground of the Leeds Football and Cricket Club - better known as a Test Match ground and home of Yorkshire Cricket Club. Parfitt was succeeded as incumbent at the Tempest by the redoubtable Frenchman, Francis Pierre Boulogne, who presided for many years and established an excellent culinary reputation for the pub, which still continues, and in addition, accommodation is now available.
As footnote to the serious beer drinker, Timothy Taylor's 'Landlord', (which, I am reliably informed, is Madonna's favourite beer!) is on draught here.

The Tempest Arms, Elslack
Proud of its reputation as the Pub of the Year 2011 according to the Good Pub Guide. This must stem from the food which dominates the activity here, but the bar area still managed to retain a bit of pub atmosphere. The beer range was good but not outstanding.
