  • Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes
    Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes + Physical Influences Malhamdale The landscape of Malhamdale is dominated by the influence of limestone, and includes some of the most spectacular examples of this type of scenery within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and within the United Kingdom as a whole. Great Scar limestone dominates the scenery around Malham, attaining a thickness of over 200m. It was formed in the Carboniferous period, some 330 million years ago, by the slow deposition of shell debris and chemical precipitates on the floor of a shallow tropical sea. The presence of faultlines creates dramatic variations in the scenery. South of Malham Tarn is the North Craven Fault, and Malham Cove and Gordale Scar, two miles to the south, were formed by the Mid Craven Fault. Easy erosion of the softer shale rocks to the south of the latter fault has created a sharp southern edge to the limestone plateau north of the fault. This step in the landscape was further developed by erosion during the various ice ages when glaciers flowing from the north deepened the basin where the tarn now stands and scoured the rock surface between the tarn and the village, leading later to the formation of limestone pavements. Glacial meltwater carved out the Watlowes dry valley above the cove. There are a number of theories as to the formation of the vertical wall of limestone that forms Malham Cove, whose origins appear to be in a combination of erosion by ice, water and underground water. It is thought that water pouring down the Watlowes valley would have cascaded over the cove and cut the waterfall back about 600 metres from the faultline, although this does not explain why the cove is wider than the valley above.

    About The Red Lion... A Warm Family Welcome Before the bridge was built, the buildings where the Red Lion now stands were situated on a ford across the River Wharfe. When the river was in spate, these buildings offered refuge & temporary lodgings to those who could not cross. In the 16th Century, the permanent buildings you see now began to arise and the Ferryman’s Inn orignally entitled ‘Bridge Tavern’ became the beautiful country Inn which is now the Red Lion. Bought by Elizabeth & Andrew Grayshon in 1991, The Red Lion & Manor House has now passed into the capable hands of their four daughters - Sarah, Victoria, Katy & Eleanor, who, with their husbands & families, continue to provide visitors with the same service that has kept the Red Lion as one of the most popular destinations in the Dales. • Breathtaking scenery • Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty • Grade II listed building Stay A While... The Manor House & Red Lion Holiday Cottages In addition to the rooms in the Red Lion, we have 11 B&B rooms in the Manor House - a charming Victorian property 150 yards away - and 4 holiday cottages. Perfect for overnight accommodation, the Manor House bedrooms are modern but simple most having lovely views of the River Wharfe and village. Perched on the banks of the River Wharfe, the 4 Riverside holiday cottages have quirky ‘upside down’ living accommodation; double & twin bedrooms on the ground floor; kitchen, dining and sitting rooms on the first floor with views down the river and to the fell. The kitchens are complete with quality appliances including a dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine and microwave.

Also, Melanie, a big thank-you for taking on this important position. And also, of course, many thanks to her predecessor, Toni, for all his excellent, award-winning work over so many years. After a generally disappointing start to the season with several meets having to be cancelled, it’s now encouraging to note that the vast improvement to the weather has enabled us to get those vans out and things seem to be in full swing. I was hugely disappointed therefore that health concerns led me to cry off attending the Festival of Walking and Cycling – I actually got as far as Wakefield! – especially, as from all accounts it was an extremely enjoyable and successful event. Congratulations and thanks to all in Northern Area who were involved in its planning and its running. You even managed to arrange fantastic weather! I wrote in our last edition about the need to ensure we have enough volunteers to fill essential positions and it’s therefore heartening to know that Peakland and Northern Areas, and the Section itself, achieved a full complement.

  • Parish of Skipton*
    294 HISTORY OF CRAVEN. PARISH OF SKIPTON* HAVE reserved for this parish, the most interesting part of my subject, a place in Wharfdale, in order to deduce the honour and fee of Skipton from Bolton, to which it originally belonged. In the later Saxon times Bodeltone, or Botltunef (the town of the principal mansion), was the property of Earl Edwin, whose large possessions in the North were among the last estates in the kingdom which, after the Conquest, were permitted to remain in the hands of their former owners. This nobleman was son of Leofwine, and brother of Leofric, Earls of Mercia.J It is somewhat remarkable that after the forfeiture the posterity of this family, in the second generation, became possessed of these estates again by the marriage of William de Meschines with Cecilia de Romille. This will be proved by the following table:— •——————————;——————————iLeofwine Earl of Mercia§=j=......... Leofric §=Godiva Norman. Edwin, the Edwinus Comes of Ermenilda=Ricardus de Abrineis cognom. Domesday. Goz. I———— Matilda=.. —————— I Ranulph de Meschines, Earl of Chester, William de Meschines=Cecilia, daughter and heir of Robert Romille, ob. 1129. Lord of Skipton. But it was before the Domesday Survey that this nobleman had incurred the forfeiture; and his lands in Craven are accordingly surveyed under the head of TERRA REGIS. All these, consisting of LXXVII carucates, lay waste, having never recovered from the Danish ravages. Of these-— [* The parish is situated partly in the wapontake of Staincliffe and partly in Claro, and comprises the townships of Skipton, Barden, Beamsley, Bolton Abbey, Draughton, Embsay-with-Eastby, Haltoneast-with-Bolton, and Hazlewood- with-Storithes ; and contains an area of 24,7893.

COPIOUSLY ILLUSTRATED BY CURIOUS ORIGINAL WOODCUTS. ROBERT CHARLES HOPE, F.S.A., F.R.S.L., PETERHOUSE, CAMBRIDGE; LINCOLN'S INN; MEMBER,OF THE COUNCIL OF THE EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY, AUTHOR OF "a GLOSSARY OF DIALECTAL PLACE-NOMENCLATURE," " AN INVENTORY OF THE CHURCH PLATE IN RUTLAND," "ENGLISH GOLDSMITHS," " THE LEPER IN ENGLAND AND ENGLISH LAZAR-HOUSES ;" EDITOR OF BARNABE GOOGE'S " POPISH KINGDOME." LONDON ELLIOT STOCK, 62, PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C. 1893. PREFACE, THIS collection of traditionary lore connected with the Holy Wells, Rivers, Springs, and Lakes of England is the first systematic attempt made. It has been said there is no book in any language which treats of Holy Wells, except in a most fragmentary and discursive manner. It is hoped, therefore, that this may prove the foundation of an exhaustive work, at some future date, by a more competent hand. The subject is almost inexhaustible, and, at the same time, a most interesting one. There is probably no superstition of bygone days that has held the minds of men more tenaciously than that of well-worship in its broadest sense, "a worship simple and more dignified than a senseless crouching before idols." An honest endeavour has been made to render the work as accurate as possible, and to give the source of each account, where such could be ascertained.

  • July 2019 at 7.00Pm
    Minutes of a meeting of Leyburn Town Council held in the Oak Room, Thornborough Hall on Monday, 15th July 2019 at 7.00pm PRESENT: Cllr Alderson Cllr Beswick Cllr Holder Cllr Medley Cllr Sanderson Cllr Waites Cllr Walker IN ATTENDANCE: Cllr Sedgwick Mrs C Smith- Clerk Ms Rebecca Hurst- Deputy Clerk Representatives from the Police and Hambleton & Richmondshire Fire Service Four members of the public 4229. PUBLIC REPRESENTATIONS Residents raised concerns over the increase in dog fouling in the Rowan Court area and expressed dissatisfaction with the standard of the verges cutting. Cllr Sedgewick reported back to the Council on a meeting attended with the highways improvement manager to discuss the safety of Moor rd. Highways responded to the following four proposed solutions to improve pedestrian safety; 1. A painted footway on the road –May give false sense of security to pedestrians. 2. Waiting restrictions painted on the carriageway-This would prevent parking on the road, however the highways consider that the parked cars act as traffic calming and slow the traffic down. 3. A pedestrian activated sign 4. Creating a priority over oncoming vehicles- This may cause congestion of traffic backing up the road. Cllr Sedgewick concluded by informing the Council that the highways do not consider Moor Road safety as a high priority, therefore no further steps will be taken at the moment due to financial restrictions. Cllr Sedgewick also updated the council that Metcalfe farms have installed signage at the end of their road instructing traffic to turn right to try to reduce the traffic on Moor Road.
