Yorkshire Dales
The Yorkshire Dales is an upland area of the Pennines in the Historic counties of England, historic county of Yorkshire, England, most of it in the Yorkshire Dales National Park created in 1954. The Dales comprise river valleys and the hills rising from the Vale of York westwards to the hilltops of the Pennine Drainage divide, watershed. In Ribblesdale, Dentdale and Garsdale, the area extends westwards across the watershed, but most of the valleys drain eastwards to the Vale of York, into the River Ouse, Yorkshire, Ouse and the Humber. The extensive limestone cave systems are a major area for caving in the UK and numerous walking trails run through the hills and dales. Etymology The word ''Dale (landform), dale'', like ''dell'', is derived from the Old English word ''dæl''. It has cognates in the North Germanic languages, Nordic/Germanic languages, Germanic words for valley (''dal'', ''tal''), and occurs in valley names across Yorkshire and Northern England.

Low Row
Low Row is a village in Swaledale, in the Yorkshire Dales, North Yorkshire, England. It lies about 3 miles west of Reeth and is between Healaugh and Gunnerside. It is part of the Richmondshire parish Melbecks. It is a linear village running along one road, the B6270. To the east, Low Row merges with the settlement of Feetham. A working farm, Hazel Brow Farm, is open to visitors and 'The Punch Bowl', a stone inn dated 1638, is by the main road. History The name Low Row comes from the Norse "The Wra" (a nook). The surname "Raw" is associated with the village. The village was raided by Jacobites in 1745, and bodies probably from that raid are buried at the church in Low Row. On 5 July 2014, the Tour de France Stage 1 from Leeds to Harrogate passed through the village. Smarber Chapel and Low Row United Reformed Church Philip, Lord Wharton, owned land in the area. On this stood a number of shooting lodges including one at Crackpot, near Keld, and one at Smarber, a small ham ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Reeth
Reeth is a village west of Richmond in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England, in the civil parish of Reeth, Fremington and Healaugh. Historically part of the North Riding of Yorkshire, it is the principal settlement of upper Swaledale. Etymology The origin of the name ''Reeth'' is unclear. It is possibly derived from the Germanic for 'place by the stream', although this claim can neither be confirmed nor refuted. Reeth could also have been derived from the Cumbric ''rith'' (cf. ''ryd'' in Modern Welsh, ''rys'' in Cornish ), meaning 'Ford'. Either would make sense as Reeth is located near two shallow rivers. History In Saxon times, Reeth was only a settlement on the forest edge, but by the time of the Norman conquest it had grown sufficiently in importance to be noted in the ''Domesday Book''. Later it became a centre for hand-knitting and the local lead industry was controlled from here, but it was always a market centre for the local farming community. ...

Villages In North Yorkshire
A village is a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet but smaller than a town (although the word is often used to describe both hamlets and smaller towns), with a population typically ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. Though villages are often located in rural areas, the term urban village is also applied to certain urban neighborhoods. Villages are normally permanent, with fixed dwellings; however, transient villages can occur. Further, the dwellings of a village are fairly close to one another, not scattered broadly over the landscape, as a dispersed settlement. In the past, villages were a usual form of community for societies that practice subsistence agriculture, and also for some non-agricultural societies. In Great Britain, a hamlet earned the right to be called a village when it built a church. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
