Everything about Wharfedale totally explained
Wharfedale is one of the
Yorkshire Dales in
England. It is the valley of the
River Wharfe. Towns and villages in Wharfedale (in order, travelling downstream, from west to east) include
Buckden,
Kettlewell,
Conistone,
Grassington,
Ilkley,
Burley-in-Wharfedale,
Otley,
Pool-in-Wharfedale,
Arthington,
Collingham, and
Wetherby. Beyond
Wetherby the valley opens out, and becomes part of the
Vale of York.
The section from the river's source to around
Addingham is known as
Upper Wharfedale and has a very different character to the rest of the area. The first fifteen miles or so is known as
Langstrothdale, including the settlements of Beckermonds, Yockenthwaite and
Hubberholme, famous for its church, the resting place of the writer
J. B. Priestley. As it turns southwards, the Wharfe then runs through a green and lush valley, characterised by
limestone outcrops, such as
Kilnsey Crag,, and woodland, generally quite unusual in the Dales.
