Hebden Information:
Tucked quietly away in Lower Wharfedale is the small yet historic village of Hebden. Designated as a conservation area by the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority since 2006, Hebden lies on ground where there has been settlements since at least the Bronze Age.

A few years ago 33 silver dinari coins were found in a field close to the village suggesting that the Romans had also occupied the region at some stage between 30 and 170 AD.

Cutting through the middle of the village is the winding Main Street where you will find the Hebden Methodist Church, a tea room inside what used to be a school and the village post office, which has had its outside post box painted gold to commemorate the gold medal won by local rower Andrew Tiggs Hodge in the coxless fours at the London Summer Olympic Games in 2012.

Hebden lies just below Grimwith Reservoir, a place that is home to many species of wild bird including Canada Geese, Teal and Reed Bunting. The reservoir is a popular resting place for walkers and is home to a sailing club.

Hebden was once known for the mining of lead and the remnants of the trade can still be seen on the hills around the area. One of the most popular walks for visitors is called the Lead Mining Trail and starts at Yarnbury to the north of Hebden. It takes in Orefield, one of the main mines during the Victorian era, and loops around the edge of the village before heading back up to the fell to its beginning point. It covers around four miles and should take no more than two hours to complete.

Linton Falls Information:
Just a five-minute walk downhill from Grassington car park. If there has been plenty of rain then standing on the bridge overlooking the falls thundering beneath can be quite scary! They formed where a fault in the earth's crust shifted millions of years ago, raising the limestone rocks to the north up higher than those to the south.

The nearby weirs once channelled water into a large textile mill, now demolished.

Upstream of the Falls you will be able to see the restored hydro-electric plant. This had shut down in the 1940s and fallen into ruin, but was restored and re-opened in 2012 and is supplying electricity through water power.
