Attractions & Places to Visit
|
Every view over the AONB's countryside has a story that lies behind it, a history of people making their mark on the natural environment. Like the Cistercian monks, the course of whose lives can be traced at Fountains Abbey, one of the National Trust's most visited properties. Like lead miners who walked to work along packhorse tracks you can follow today into an eerily quiet landscape that was once a hive of industry. There are plenty of places to visit in the AONB, where these and other accounts can be experienced at first hand. To help you navigate your way around the AONB we have divided it into five main areas - Upper Nidderdale - Lower Nidderdale - Mashamshire - The East and The South. Under each section you will find lots of local information, places to visit and ideas for walks in the area. |
