There is no legal right of way for bicycles across the old mine workings above Yarnbury to Bycliffe and this revision avoids this area entirely. The revised route takes the quiet tarmac lane from the heart of Grassington, following the eastern side of the River Wharfe, to the pleasant village of Conistone, where the original route is regained. There is a right of way (Scot Gate Lane) that climbs long and steeply up to Bycliffe from just outside Conistone. It would involve descending the same way you climbed, but the descent (part of the original route) is a fun undertaking. Overview A pleasant ride up the eastern side of the River Wharfe from Grassington to the vil- lage of Conistone. The route crosses the River Wharfe and heads to Kilnsey before climbing out of the dale. A long grassy climb over sheep pasture is followed by fun bridleways and then a good rocky descent towards Threshfield. Quiet roads and easy bridleways are then linked together for the return leg to Grassington. On Scot Gate Lane above Wharfedale 116 Mountain Biking in the Yorkshire Dales 16 Grassington 117 Directions 1 Starting out from the car park at the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority building in Grassington, turn out of the car park.

Threshfield Quarry Circuit
This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk Threshfield Quarry Circuit Starting point and OS Grid reference Skirethorns Lane, Threshfield - Wide entrance road to Threshfield Quarry (SDS 982639) Ordnance Survey map OL2 Yorkshire Dales – Southern and Western area. Distance 5.3 miles Date of Walk 8 June 2015 Traffic light rating Introduction: If the title of “Threshfield Quarry Circuit” does not inspire you to expect much of a walk, put your prejudice to one side and prepare for a really pleasant surprise. I had the same reservations, until a friend took me on the walk. In fact this is a delightful, easy route along well defined paths/tracks with some stunning views. These include a sweeping vista of Wharfedale, views to Rylstone Ridge, Sharp Haw and Rough Haw and Pendle Hill plus attractive limestone outcrops. The quarry itself provides a dramatic finale of staggering dimensions. Quarrying here has clearly been going on for a long time. 15th and 16th century monastic records refer to lime kilns at Kilnsey and Threshfield but this site began in earnest in 1902. It ceased production in 2000. There are all sorts of plans currently afoot to develop the quarry. These include a visitor and exhibition centre, business space and wildlife haven. This will be a long lasting project, full details of which have yet to be finalised. The walk starts from the entrance to the quarry on Skirethorns Lane at Threshfield where there is a very wide area where you can park safely. To get there, take the B6160 NW from Threshfield (near Grassington).

Faecal Bacteria Data from Samples Collected on the 24Th August 2020
Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWHARFE Improving water quality on the River Wharfe from Oughtershaw to the Ouse A citizen science project Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWharfe is a citizen science project. It involves members of communities along the Wharfe valley, working together with the Environment Agency, Yorkshire Water and other agencies. It is funded by local donations and grants. The project was designed to provide a snapshot of water quality condi- tions along the entire length of the river on a single day and to raise awareness about water quality issues both for people and wildlife. Water samples were collected on the 24th August 2020. Here we report on results from samples analysed for faecal bacteria, the organisms in wastewater that cause gastro-intestinal illness. Executive Summary 1. The R. Wharfe “Big Health Check” on the 24th August 2020 involved five teams of citizen scien- tists taking water samples from 60 sites along the R. Wharfe at approximately the same time on the same day. 2. Although riverflow was relatively high, conditions were similar along the full length of the river. 3. Samples for faecal bacteria analysis were stored in cool boxes and hand-delivered to a collection point in Wakefield. They were analysed for E. coli and Intestinal Enterococci (IE) at ALS Ltd Cov- entry, an accredited microbiology laboratory, within 24 hours of sampling. 4. The results showed high concentrations of both E. coli and IE at sites between Buckden and Barden Bridge in Upper Wharfedale and at Beanlands Island in Ilkley, relatively low concentra- tions in Langstrothdale and in the stretch from Bolton Abbey to Ilkley Suspension Bridge, and var- iable concentrations downstream from Burley to the Ouse confluence at Cawood.

Explore Upper Wharfedale
SWALEDALE Buckden UPPER CUMBRIA UPPER WENSLEYDALE WHARFEDALE LOWER WENSLEYDALE Horton Kettlewell UPPER RIBBLESDALE WHARFEDALE Stainforth MALHAMDALE Grassington Settle LOWER WHARFEDALE Explore Upper Wharfedale History and archaeology of Upper Wharfedale Upper Wharfedale is a classic u-shaped glacial valley. 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.
