The moorland fires can be seen in EAW016008 which shows the reservoirs which are the easiest features to identify. The field boundaries to the west of Slade and to the north of Haigh Cote are unique and helped me to identify this location.

EAW016007 EAW016008 and EAW016009 are all of the Warley Moor area now in Calderdale. I found them from the reservoir shapes in one of the photos.
