周辺の天然記念物・トップ6

Lots of signs around here demarcating private land, however, this is on the intersection of a bridleway (Hunsley High Circuit) running east-west and a public footpath running north from this weir up Drewton Wold.

Natural spring and restored well - information board gives a good background to the site. Lots of ribbons tied on a tree for good luck, which is very reminiscent of the tanabata festival in Japan. The spring that feeds this well also causes the trail to become flooded and boggy in winter several metres past the well (heading east away from Market Weighton).

Maintained by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, Rifle Butts Quarry was created to provide stone for the construction of the railway line adjacent to the nature reserve. The site was then used as a rifle range from the 1890s to the First World War.

Can't get too close, there is a bin nearby for rubbish if you need it.

The route from Beverley is excellent and the roads are extremely quiet

If you like crazy downhill and you decide to give it a try, double check for walkers first as it's narrow and steep

Located just outside Kiplingcotes hamlet, Kiplingcotes Chalk Pit Nature Reserve is a disused quarry which is now a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Amongst the chalk grassland, you will find various flowers such as knapweed and salad burnet as well as butterflies, long-tailed field mice, goldfinches and yellowhammers. During winter, you can also spot Hebridean sheep and Exmoor ponies who graze here to keep the grasses in check.
