Challenge Notes
UK Yorkshire Three Peaks Weekend Duration: 3 days This region was shaped by glaciers many thousands of years ago, and there are plenty of geological landmarks – striking limestone outcrops and unusual rock formations – to pique our interest as we walk. We will also see the famous Ribblehead Viaduct enroute, part of the scenic Settle to Carlisle railway line. This is an extremely tough event over hilly landscapes; at 24 miles it forms an enormous challenge for walkers. DETAILED ITINERARY Day 1: Arrive Camp, Yorkshire Dales We meet late afternoon at our campsite near Chapel-le-Dale, nestled between two of our three peaks. After dinner and a thorough trip briefing we prepare our kit and get a good night’s sleep, ready for tomorrow’s strenuous challenge! Day 2: Ingleborough & Whernside After a good fuelling breakfast in camp, we set off, walking south through the broad green dale, criss-crossed with dry-stone walls. Ingleborough’s stepped shape - due to its alternating layers of limestone, sandstone and shale – rises before us. Whernside, our second peak, dominates the landscapes behind us. We pass through the village of Chapel-le-Dale and soon reach the base of Ingleborough (723m), where a stepped path zig-zags fairly steadily to the summit of our first peak. We soak up the views over the surrounding dramatic landscapes, an area of rocky outcrops and limestone scars, and the impressive sight of the famous 400m-long Ribblehead Viaduct, built in the 1870s. We then descend along a ridge to the valley below, where we walk parallel to the Settle – Carlisle Railway, enjoying WWW.DISCOVERADVENTURE.COM || 01722 718444 AITO Assured PAGE 2 a flattish section! We pass through Ribblehead, at the head of Chapel-le-Dale, and can admire the Viaduct from close quarters.

TThhee YYoorrkksshhiirree JJoouurrnnaall Issue 3 Autumn 2016 In this issue: On to Ribblehead and Settle Some Yorkshire Recipes Goathland - before Aidensfield A. J. Brown – Yorkshire’s Tramping Author The Warwick Revolving Tower at Scarborough The Long Drag The article ‘On to Ribblehead and Settle’, pages 4-19 concludes Stephen Riley’s series of articles on the Settle to Carlisle railway. The first one ‘The Highest Railway Station located in the Yorkshire Dales National Park’ is a detailed history of the Dent Railway Station (TYJ Spring 2015). His second article ‘Through the Blea Moor Tunnel and onwards’ (TYJ Summer 2015), highlights the features on the line from Dent Railway Station to the Blea Moor Tunnel. In 1962-3 a 50 minute pioneering coloured documentary film was made by members of the Halifax Cine Club titled “The Long Drag”. This film records many of the viaducts, tunnels and features that are documented in Stephen’s articles. It shows members of the club travelling by train and on foot in order to point out the most interesting structures on the Settle to Carlisle railway. What makes this documentary unique is that this film captures several railway structures that were demolished soon after it was made. It begins with the narrator explaining the history and development of the line in the 19th century. After this introduction the film team board a steam train at Hellifield Station which takes them on to Settle Station and beyond pointing out various places on the way, including, the former Craven and Murgatroyd Lime Works, Stainforth Force, Sheriff Brow Viaduct and Helwith Bridge.

KENDAL UNITARIAN CHAPEL Nurturing faith. Embracing life. Celebrating difference. April 2017 KENDAL UNITARIAN CHAPEL Nurturing faith. Embracing life. Celebrating difference. charity number 236829 HUwww.ukunitarians.org.uk/kendal U WELCOME to Kendal Unitarians Unitarians are very different We don't have a particular set of beliefs that we expect you to agree with. Everyone who comes to the chapel is free to discover their own spiritual path. We welcome people on any point of their spiritual journey: those who have been seeking elsewhere or those whose journey has only just begun. We believe everyone has the right to seek truth and meaning for themselves in mutual respect, and that reason and conscience are our best guides. Our congregation includes people who are Christian, humanists, pagans, agnostics, etc., or a mixture of all of these! Cover photo: Beck Head © Mike Oram 2013 1 2 Fairtrade Update Our Service on 5 March, as part of Fairtrade Fortnight, turned into what I described as Brexit, Bananas and Bees. It was good to have Janet and Delphine from the Kendal Fairtrade Group with us. Janet outlined some of the issues that will be important to consider as the UK negotiates new trade deals, and Delphine made mention of a film she had seen the previous day about the illegal trafficking of children for use in the cocoa production in- dustry. On the following Wednesday, I was able to attend the Roman Catholic Church of Holy Trinity and St George in Kendal to hear a pres- entation by Charles Chavi who is a Fairtrade sugar producer in Malawi.

The Coach Operators Guide
THE COACH OPERATORS GUIDE GROUP TRAVEL ON THE SETTLE - CARLISLE RAILWAY WELCOME TO THE SETTLE & CARLISLE RAILWAY Explore one of the world’s greatest railway journeys... This world-famous railway line carves its way through some of the Yorkshire Dales’ most dramatic scenery and the remote fells of Westmorland. The hard climbing done; it then passes through Cumbria’s verdant Eden Valley before arriving at the historic border city of Carlisle. The Settle to Carlisle railway has become etched in history as the line they tried to close– but failed. More than 25 years ago, it came perilously close to being shut forever but, at the last moment, was reprieved. Since then, it has gone from strength to strength and is loved for its sense of history and the impossibly dramatic setting. From Leeds, the line passes through West Yorkshire to Skipton where the Yorkshire Dales begin. Settle is the gateway to the spectacular Three Peaks area (Pen-y-Ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside), in the heart of which sits the Ribblehead viaduct. A testament to Victorian engineering and the tenacity of the men who built it, the structure needs to be viewed in its position to be believed. The climb continues to the line’s highest point at Ais Gill, giving an awe-inspiring vista of Dentdale along the way. The craggy sides of Mallerstang signal the start of the descent into Cumbria’s Eden Valley. Isolated farms and waterfalls pepper the valley sides, and, by Kirkby Stephen, the landscape has become increasingly lush and verdant. At Appleby, red sandstone buildings surround a medieval castle in this pretty market town with beautiful riverside walks.
