THE LOCAL AREA

Skipton and Bolton Abbey

Skipton is a quaint and friendly town with nostalgic cobbled side streets, a busy farmer’s market and traditional high street with alleys and passages between what were originally narrow landholdings known as tofts and crofts. There are a number of unique and independent shops, pubs, and cafes to explore.

The town also boasts the Craven Museum in the Town Hall with various exhibits relating to many aspects of Dales life. It is also home to a rare Shakespeare First Folio dating back to 1623; there are only 230 copies in the world and the Craven Museum copy is one of only four First Folios on permanent display in the world.

In nearby Embsay, you can board the steam locomotive, take in the beautiful scenery along the way and hop off at the Bolton Abbey Estate – well worth a visit. The Domesday Book

recorded the Bolton Abbey estate as belonging to Earl Edwin of Mercia. The estate was 9,240 acres in size covering places such as Malham, Gargrave, Skipton and Addingham. In 1539, the priory was destroyed and looted during the dissolution of the monasteries, with only St Mary’s and Cuthbert Parish Church remaining. This Gothic church was upgraded during the 19th century and is still operational for members of the parish. Today, the estate is some 30,0000 acres, owned by the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire and is a popular tourist attraction.

You’ll find wonderful walks and stunning scenery almost everywhere you turn in this area of the Dales. The River Wharfe flows through including The Strid, a narrow gorge less than two metres wide at some points. The Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway is a volunteer-run service that runs between the two villages on Sundays with weekdays added in the summer to transport larger numbers of tourists. The route uses part of the old Skipton to Ilkley line, which closed in 1965.
