Heavy snow has fallen over Ilkley, the West Yorkshire spa town, over recent hours. The main road to the Cow and Calf, one of the top tourist attractions in Yorkshire, is silent, apart from the sound of families playing in the snow. Normally, this route would be full of traffic. #yorkshire #snow

00:00Hello there, I'm Greg Wright of the Yorkshire Post. This is the main road from Ilkley up
00:11to Cowan Calf Rock, it's one of the best known tourist attractions in Yorkshire. As you can
00:16see there's no traffic here at all at the moment, it's been snowing heavily all night
00:21and instead of cars, normally this would be full of traffic and there'd be cars coming
00:30up and down the road, there's nothing. The only people moving are people in sleds. This
00:38is one of the busiest roads in Wharfdale going up to Cowan Calf Rock, it's one of the best
00:46known tourist attractions in Yorkshire and as you can see it's absolutely deathly quiet.
00:53All you can see here, my family's out enjoying the snow and it's continuing to snow heavily
