Source notes
These lines are taken from J. Horsfal Turner's Ancient Bingley (1897)[1]. His source is a pamphlet: Lines written on a Beautiful Glen situated between Bingley and Baildon. By R. West, Bard of the Vale. Prospect Street, Bingley. 8 pp. [Bingley]: J. Dobson, near the Railway Station, 1851.
Since the 'Introduction' is dated March 1849, the pamphlet may well have been first printed that year. Horsfal Turner prefixes these comments: 'Eldwick or Shipley Glen had not then been fixed as the name of this favourite pic-nic place. Brackenhall Green was the general local name, but it was then becoming widely renowned'.[1]
