There is no need to travel to the North Pennine hills to enjoy moorland. Waldridge Fell is an unusual landscape to find so close to an urban area but with its mix of rare lowland heath supporting heather and bilberry it makes for a particularly delightful scene when the heather blooms in mid to late summer and a purple haze spreads across the hill.
