    Hiking

    A terrific bench on the green to rest on and enjoy this sleepy hamlet! Would you believe that Old Byland was the place of an important medieval battle between the Scots and English in 1322, in the course of the Wars of Scottish Independence?

    Hiking

    Very quiet, very quaint, and well-served by footpaths and bridleways. Lots more info on the Battle of Byland Moor at yorkshireguides.com/old_byland.html#:~:text=Old%20Byland%20was%20the%20scene,the%20Wars%20of%20Scottish%20Independence.
