Orgate Force on Marske Beck.
View of the beautiful and remote Throstle Gill from Telfit Bank heading up to Skelton Moor.
Near Skelton, a relic of the Dales industrial past that once relied a great deal on water wheel power. * The Yorkshire Dales National Park in North Yorkshire and East Cumbria and the North Pennines form a wonderful part of Northern England to visit for walking or car touring holidays. The scenery is magnificent and the countryside, villages and towns rarely seem overcrowded and the people always friendly. There is lots to see and do and plenty of accommodation available from hostels, hotels, bed and breakfast, holiday cottages etc. whether for weeks or a weekend mini-break when holidaying in the Yorkshire Dales. * page updated Oct 27th 2007 * EMAIL Phil Brown * Images-photographs-pictures-photos-webshots of walking in Marske Beck-Skelton-Clints Wood-Throstle Gill-Telfit Bank Orgate Force © Dr W P Brown * |
