These combine with shallow soil cover, shakeholes, potholes and caves to form classic karst landscape. • Panoramic views across the southern dales and southern dales fringes. In the western part of the area views are dominated by the Three Peaks landforms of Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent. Vertical limestone • Closely grazed, springy, flower-rich grasslands form a neat, bright green carpet between exposed rock features. cliffs at Kilnsey • Scattered trees or open, grazed woodland on scree slopes and cliffs, with occasional windblown trees or shrubs in Crag, Wharfedale ... cliffs and pavements at higher levels. Several large, semi-natural, undergrazed woodlands occur on the dale sides and a few, small, isolated plantations at higher elevations. • A general absence of streams and surface water features, with the exception of occasional small tarns and limited numbers of springs at the base of the limestone moors, mainly around Ingleborough.

There is a ‘pay and display’ car park in the village centre, as well as limited roadside parking just over the River Ribble. There is also a railway station on the Settle and Carlisle line.

The stony track climbs between walls of white limestone as it heads north-east then north. As height is gained the views over the valley are blighted by the massive limestone quarries.

  • The Exploitation of the Horton Flags-Considered As an Example of Indu Strial Archaeology
    Field Studies6 (1985),237-251 THE EXPLOITATION OF THE HORTON FLAGS-CONSIDERED AS AN EXAMPLE OF INDU STRIAL ARCHAEOLOGY W. R. MITCHELL 18 YealandAztenue, Giggleswick, Settle, North Yorkshire Agsrnecr A small outcrop of Horton Flags, which are of Silurian age, was quarried at five points near Helwith Bridge, in North Ribblesdale, for over 200 years. Large, smooth piecesof Flag, impervious to moisture, were fashioned into objects that were of basic daily use in the locality. Flags were used as flooring, shelving in kitchens and dairies, large cisterns to hold rainwater and small troughs from which farm stock might drink. A great many piecesare to be found within a few miles of Malham Tarn Field Centre. There are gate stoops, road bridges, "throughs" in drystone walls, a rich variety of obiects made from slate at some local churches and, on Swarth Moor, Helwith Bridge, mere (boundary) stones that marked the extent of local peat workings. Data concerning the geology, history, exploitation and use of Horton Flags are presented and discussed,together with methods used by the author to record rhe best surviving examples and suggestionsfor further study. Gnorocy HonroN FLAGSare sedimentary rocks of Silurian age which underlie Moughton Fell and are very evident through outcropping between the villages of Stainforth and Horton-in-Ribblesdale (seeFigures I and 2). Here they give a dark appearanceto what is elsewhere a valley noted for its limestone. Drystone walls are good indicators of local geology and so it is possible to seewhere limestone is supplanted by the Flags. Man-made outcrops caused by extensive quarrying are everywhere.

  • Draft LGAP Your Dales Rocks Project
    i ii The ‘Your Dales Rocks Project’ – A Draft Local Geodiversity Action Plan (2006-2011) for the Yorkshire Dales and the Craven Lowlands The Yorkshire Dales and Craven Lowlands have a diverse landscape that reflects the underlying geology and its history. The auditing and protection of this geodiversity is important to help preserve the landscape and the underlying geology. It is also important to help integrate the needs of the local population, education, recreation and science with quarrying and the National need for aggregate. This draft Action Plan sets out a framework of actions for auditing, recording and monitoring the geodiversity of the Dales and Craven lowlands. As its title indicates, it is a draft and subject to change as comments are made and incorporated. The implementation of the Action Plan is also dependent on funding becoming available. For this draft, the North Yorkshire Geodiversity Partnership is particularly thankful for the support of the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund from the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, administered by English Nature, and the Landscape, Access and Recreation side of the Countryside Agency. It is also very grateful to the organisations of the authors and steering group listed below (and whose logos appear on the front cover) that have invested staff time and money to make this draft Action Plan a reality. Over time, the plan will evolve and Adrian Kidd, the project officer (address below) welcomes suggestions and comments, which will help to formulate the final
