  • 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.

    Welcome to Sykes House Bed and Breakfast Main Street, Askrigg, North Yorkshire, DL8 3HT Tel: 01969 650535 www.sykeshouse.co.uk We hope your stay with us meets your expectations and you feel relaxed and comfortable in our home. If you have any questions or problems please speak to us Thank you Alison and Michael ABOUT SYKES HOUSE AND ASKRIGG Sykes House is thought to have been built in the 1600’s, it is a Grade 2 listed building and therefore it retains many of its original features including the stone spiral staircase, exposed beams, sash windows and fireplaces. On the front of the building can be seen the Winged Wheels of the Cycling Touring Club, more information can be read at the back of this pack but we do know that around 1888 our plaque was placed and members then knew that they would be welcome to stop during their journey and have refreshments. The building was a Temperance Hotel at this time, so consequently; only tea, coffee and soft drinks would be served. Previous owners of Sykes House opened up their living room as a shop to serve the local community and it has grown into the store it is today along with the Tea Room and B&B. The cottage next door to the shop was not built until the late 1700’s, there used to be stone steps outside that led up to a hatch that is now behind the bread shelf. People would approach outside and whilst remaining on their horses would be served refreshments (mainly ale) through the hatch.

  • AMBITIOUS NATIONAL PARK PLAN TAKES ANOTHER STEP FORWARD Pollution from Vehicles, Agricultural Emissions and Heather Burning
    Dales A newspaper for the residents of the Yorkshire Dales National Park Summer 2018 AMBITIOUS NATIONAL PARK PLAN TAKES ANOTHER STEP FORWARD pollution from vehicles, agricultural emissions and heather burning. Carl Lis added: “Quite a number of the proposed objectives - for instance on peat bog restoration, tree planting and raising the standard of public rights of way - are designed to build on the successes of the past five years. “Other objectives - on supporting farming, promoting our dark skies and attracting families - are new and very ambitious. For instance, within the next three years we want to see a new, locally-tailored and locally-delivered environmental land management scheme that better rewards farmers in the National Park. “The 50 proposed objectives would be delivered by many different local bodies. For example, the County Councils will be leading on improving broadband, while the Environment Agency will lead proposals to deliver more natural flood management.” The draft National Park Management Plan includes an objective for a locally-tailored environmental land management scheme that will better reward farmers. Steering group member Dan Hudson, who is Development Strategy and Housing Manager at South Lakeland District An ambitious new plan to deliver on the 30 year vision for objectives, although, inevitably, also some very different Council, said: “The plan is the result of genuine the National Park was published for final comment this spring. views about the best way forward on certain issues.” partnership working and ‘joined-up thinking’ across public, private and voluntary organisations.

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.
