About

The Norton Tower & Mount Tabor area occupies a high, open moorland plateau in Calderdale, characterised by expansive heather and rough grassland. The landscape is defined by gritstone outcrops and historical field boundaries, with long sightlines across the Upper Calder Valley. The area's elevated position results in exposed conditions and weather that shapes the hardy vegetation.

A central feature is the standalone Norton Tower, a square, stone shooting lodge built in the 19th century. It serves as a prominent landmark for walkers traversing the Calderdale Way, which crosses these moors. The geology reveals itself through scattered boulders and the dry valleys that channel rainfall off the plateau toward the steep cloughs descending into the valley below.
