Height offers a quiet contemplation of West Yorkshire's moorland edge. It lies 3.1 km north of Meltham (from Meltham: bearing 359°T, OS grid SE 099 136), and is situated south-east of Linthwaite village. The air here, even on a still day, seems to carry the scent of damp earth and distant heather, a subtle perfume that speaks of the surrounding Pennine landscape. The houses, predominantly of local stone, present a stoic face to the elements, their windows catching the sometimes fleeting, sometimes enduring light that spills across the undulating terrain. A quiet industry once flowed through these parts, the murmur of mills now a memory, replaced by the gentle hum of suburban life and the rustle of leaves in the small, well-tended gardens. The sky above Height often stretches a vast, pale blue, a canvas for the slow drift of clouds that can shift the mood of the land in moments.
