Detailed Explanation & Answer
Ted Hughes, a renowned English poet, was born and raised in Mytholmroyd, West Yorkshire, and later moved to Mexborough, South Yorkshire.

His upbringing in the Yorkshire moors significantly influenced his work, and the landscapes of Yorkshire appear prominently in his poetry. Hughes often drew inspiration from the rugged and wild nature of the Yorkshire countryside, which is reflected in his vivid and powerful descriptions of nature.

Hughes' poetry is renowned for its intense focus on nature, animals, and the natural world, often depicted with raw, elemental force. He frequently incorporated mythological themes and archetypes.
