The lovely Pennine hills turn purple in August (and September since we're a little late this year). It's all thanks to the tiny little flowers of the moorland heather. The effect is stunning!
The landscape transforms from a bleak no-mans-land into a carpet of bouncy purple shrubs. The best time to see it is in the late evening sunshine when the hills appear to glow - it makes my heart sing!
