  • Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes

    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.

  • Lancashire & North Yorkshire County Councils' Study

    Lancashire & North Yorkshire County Councils' Study

    SELRAP Skipton–East Lancashire Rail Action Partnership Campaigning to re-open the Skipton-Colne railway Briefing Paper – Spring 2003 About SELRAP Formed in spring 2001, SELRAP – the Skipton–East Lancashire Rail Action Partnership – is a volunteer group campaigning for the re-instatement of the railway line between Skipton (North Yorkshire) and Colne (Lancashire) – see map on page 3 – for passenger and freight use. SELRAP’s first aim is to ensure that until the railway can be re-built, the trackbed is protected from any development which would preclude its future re-use as a railway. The Skipton-Colne railway is seen as a major national and regional resource which needs to be re-instated to provide inter-regional and local rail services accessible to all. It will also help take heavy freight off the region’s roads. SELRAP only fights FOR the railway: it does not, in itself, have a view on the proposed “A56 Villages Bypass” from Colne towards Skipton, which would use the railway trackbed for much of its route. If this road has to go ahead, SELRAP says it should be routed so as not to destroy the trackbed. SELRAP’s aims are fully supported by Craven District Council (the planning authority for the section within North Yorkshire), by Skipton Town Council, and by members of all the main political parties in Pendle (restoration of the railway was adopted as policy by the Pendle Labour party in November 2002). SELRAP is also supported by the Countryside Agency as well as by all pro-railway and environmental pressure and campaign groups.
