THE Duke of York was visiting Huddersfield today.

Prince Andrew was due in Emley this afternoon, for a visit to the award-winning Natural Wheatbag Company.

The company has gained a Queen's Award for industry.

The prince was spending a full day in West Yorkshire. His first port of call today was Batley Grammar School and he was then moving on to Oakwell Hall, Birkstall, one of the Kirklees museums.

There he was meeting dozens of local schoolchildren and also inspecting the newly-restored formal gardens.
