When the last glacier melted it briefly left behind a lake. Even today, the valley bottom is prone to flooding and in the past, the marshy ground meant that there were limited bridging points and that roads had to run along the valley sides. The settlement pattern today consists mostly of valley based villages situated at the foot of side valleys. There are few isolated farmsteads. The earliest evidence for people in the dale are the numerous flint weapons and tools that have been collected over the years as chance finds. There is also a much-mutilated Neolithic round barrow. The valley sides and tops have been farmed extensively since at least the Bronze Age. The area is notable for the survival of vast prehistoric and Romano-British farming landscapes, from tiny square ‘Celtic’ fields for growing crops to huge co-axial field systems running in parallel lines up to the top of the valley sides, probably used for farming cattle and sheep. Bronze Age burial cairns are another feature of the landscape. There are few clues about life in the dale just after the Roman period. A 7th century AD female burial near Kettlewell and the chance find of an Anglo-Saxon reliquary shows a continuing spiritual life while Tor Dyke at the entrance to Coverdale above Kettlewell is evidence for the early establishment of territorial boundaries.

  • Kettlewell Youth Hostels
    YHA (England and Wales) Youth Hostel Profile compiled by the Association’s volunteer archivist, John Martin, rev2020-01-01 Kettlewell Youth Hostels Kettlewell [Old School] Youth Hostel 1933 to 1944 The Old School, School Hill, Kettlewell, Skipton, Yorkshire Historic County: YHA Region: West Riding GR: SD 972724 Yorkshire (West Riding) On 12th December 1933 the old West Riding Region of the Youth Hostels Association opened a medium-sized hostel in the redundant former Church of England school in Kettlewell. The typically Victorian building of 1895 featured a bell turret and high-pitched roof and was built on a hillside on the north edge of the village, at the side of steep School Hill. The building had a chequered history; a Friends’ meeting house was built in this elevated spot in 1683, but fell into ruin. The school and schoolhouse incorporated its datestone into the building. Kettlewell was a stronghold of non-conformism, however, and its inhabitants did not support the Church of England school, which was quickly abandoned while another village school was built. It saw a period of neglect until YHA’s tenancy. 1 2 1: a rare postcard of the Old School youth hostel, viewed from the steep School Hill, sometimes called Cam Gill Road; 2: photograph showing the typically tall schoolroom windows (author’s collection) 1 The warden was Miss Maggie Jacques from almost the outset until her retirement in 1942; she lived in Wear’s Cottage, a few minutes from the hostel to the south of the stream. After that date there were volunteer wardens. Miss Jacques died in 1949.

  • Chapter 5 Study Area; Background, Description and Model Application
    79 Chapter 5 Study area; background, description and model application 5.1 Choice of field area The catchment of Cam Gill Beck, above Starbotton, Upper Wharfedale, Yorkshire UK, was selected for three reasons. Firstly, the Yorkshire dales are representative of much of the UK’s uplands, with relief, morphology and vegetation that are largely typical. Secondly, there are many well documented investigations of the hydrological and sedimentological history of the Yorkshire Dales (Coulthard et al;. 1996, 1998, 1999, Longfield; 1999, Merett and Macklin; 1998a , 1998b, 1999, Taylor and Macklin; 1998, Howard and Macklin; 1998, Howard et al; 1998, Black et al.; 1998, Martlew; 1998, White; 1998). Therefore, the Yorkshire Dales arguably now have the most comprehensive Holocene record of upland, piedmont and lowland fluvial activity in the UK. Finally, within this region Cam Gill Beck itself is ideal for numerical modelling, as it is a small catchment with a simple network morphology. This is important as it allows a rapid development and validation of the model. The catchment contains flood deposits dated to an extreme event in 1686, which appear relatively undisturbed, allowing easy validation as there has been limited re-working or subsequent deposition. Furthermore, the catchment is accessible, lies on private ground and remains relatively undisturbed, especially from recent land use practices such as gripping (moorland drainage). 5.2 Geology, physiography and history of the Yorkshire Dales The Yorkshire Dales are located in central northern England, north west of Leeds between the Peak District and Northern Pennines (Figure 5.1). They encompass a range of landscapes, with bleak peat-covered moorland plateaus, deeply entrenched glacial valleys, ancient settlements and steep limestone outcrops that contain some of the finest examples of karst landscape in the UK (Howard and Macklin 1998).
