Yorkshire Water tenants face large rent increase despite being unable to make a living from farming alone

Tenant hill farmers Richard and Louise Pullan of Breaks Fold Farm, West End in Nidderdale have always come up with ideas to make their farm work. They are still trying, but are now under greater pressure than ever before due to an 18 per cent rent hike that the couple say was initially proposed as nearly 200 per cent. It all seems almost Dickensian, the poor tenant being ground down by the big bad landlord.
