Barwick-in-Elmet unveils itself as a charming village. It stands as one of merely three locales in the region with a direct link to the storied Romano-British kingdom of Elmet from antiquity. In this village, an exploration awaits, highlighted by noteworthy attractions. Among them is the village's pride: the second-largest Maypole in the United Kingdom. Another gem, Hall Tower Hill, once an observatory during the Second World War, graces the landscape. Completing the village experience, one can find solace within the welcoming confines of any of its three public houses.

Nestled in the picturesque landscape of West Yorkshire, Bardsey village has roots dating back to the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appeared as "Berdesei" and "Bereleseie." The Bingley Arms, a historical establishment, lays claim to the title of Britain's oldest surviving pub. Adjacent to it stands the All Hallows Church, hailing from the 9th century. Within the church's hallowed walls, visitors encounter The Bardsey Millennium Tapestry, a collaborative creation by numerous village residents, culminating in its completion in the year 2001.

The construction of the church is thought to have taken place around 1150, and remnants of the Norman-era structure remain both within its walls and on its exterior. The chancel and the south door stand as the most ancient segments that persist, originating from the earliest times. Subsequently, the north aisle and the priest's door emerged during the final quarter of the 12th century, marking the next stages of architectural evolution. The trio of church bells, crafted by George Dalton in the year 1786. While these bells frequently ring out, their full peal cannot be executed due to a crack within the tower. This precautionary measure is in place to prevent exacerbating the crack's condition through excessive vibrations.

Tunnel closed due to concerns of falling masonry. Possibly closed for 6 months from the 6th Dec. 2021. There is a good cyclable path at the side.

One of Barwick in Elmet's most distinctive landmarks, this 86-foot (26m) maypole is the second highest in the UK. Every three years, a raising ceremony takes place where tradition dictates that a local villager climbs the pole to spin 'the fox', which is actually a weather vane. The maypole marks the end of the first of the four traditional stages of the Leeds Country Way.
