Spennithorne周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

A hidden gem and interesting story behind the construction of the Temple. Beautiful views and an interesting undulating walk through stunning countryside.

The Six Dales Trail only launched in 2010. It starts in Otley and meanders across the entire Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) to finish here at Middleham. So you are either at the start of the trek or the finish, depending on what direction you are hiking. The trail is 38 miles long (61 km) and is a fully waymarked route with heather moorland, rivers, parkland, and the famous Jervaulx Abbey. Here at Middleham is the fantastic Middleham Castle, which is well worth a visit.

Masham is a small market town that is built around a large square. It has held a market charter since 1250 and thrived due to the easy access of the flocks of sheep from nearby Fountains and Jervaulx Abbeys. There is still a sheep fair every September where huge numbers of sheep are bought and sold.

Masham Market Place is one of the largest in England. It has elegant Georgian houses that stand around its periphery and an ancient cross with cobbled area at its centre.

the drive to the temple was well worth it. You will find a cafe, and family area, before a short walk up to the temple. the set up of the rock formations is mind blowing, but very interesting. a big tick for me to visit again.

This isn't an actual temple, it's a 19th century folly created to provide employment for local people by the wealthy landowner William Danby. It's styled as a smaller version of Stone Henge and although only 200 years old it's still atmospheric and worth a visit.

Masham (pronounced Massam) has a Georgian market square at its centre, home to many independent business, pubs and the town hall. Both Black Sheep Brewery and Theakstons Brewery are located in Masham, just a short distance from each other. Each year Masham celebrates its rural history with a sheep fair in the market square. Once, over 70,000 sheep would have been sold each year here.

This was the perfect spot for lunch on this walk, just over halfway round and after the climb. This is an interesting place, my kids loved exploring it and we stayed about an hour before moving on.
