Clogmaker Robin Longbottom hit the silver screen on Tuesday in a YTV feature about keeping the dying trade alive in Yorkshire. Robin, who runs Greenwood Clogs in Cross Roads as a hobby, demonstrated his fancy footwork on The Dales Diary. Originally Robin was a customer at Greenwood Clogs but he decided to buy the business in 1998 after Ellis Greenwood retired, and spent six months learning the trade from Ellis.

He said: "It seemed sad that we were going to lose, locally, one of the last traditional shops. There is no real living to be made from making clogs, but there are clog wearers."
