The Druids Temple was built to alleviate local unemployment, allowing William Danby, a wealthy landowner of the time to pay workers a shilling a day for their labour.
At less than 200 years old, it is nonetheless an atmospheric and intriguing location.
Despite its origin being common knowledge, myths and rumours of mystic practices have sprung up over its lifetime with tales of Devil worship and harrowing frights experienced by those who have spent the night. It's a bit spooky even in daylight hours!

Embark on The Druid's Temple & Sole Beck loop from High Knowle, a moderate hike that takes you through the varied landscapes of the Swinton Estate. This 4.8-mile (7.7 km) route features a diverse terrain, including paths through Druid's Plantation, field paths alongside Sole Beck Gill, and sections of moorland. You will gain about 495 feet (151 metres) in elevation over approximately 2 hours and 8 minutes, enjoying views of Leighton Reservoir and tranquil waterside sections along the River Burn. The highlight is the intriguing Druid's Temple, a 19th-century folly nestled within the woods.
To begin your hike, head to the Swinton Bivouac, which serves as the starting point and offers amenities like a car park. While the trail is generally accessible, some sections can be steep and uneven, and paths may be muddy, especially after rain. You will encounter a mix of paths, minor roads, and unpaved sections, with some parts featuring gorse and bracken. Sure-footedness is recommended for certain areas, and you should be prepared for a few stiles along the way.
This trail is set within the expansive Swinton Estate in North Yorkshire, known for its woodlands, reservoirs, and moorland. The Druid's Temple, a unique feature on the route, was built in 1820 by William Danby to provide local employment, styled after ancient stone circles. Beyond this folly, you will also pass by the picturesque Sole Beck Gill and the historical ruins of Lobley Hall. Sections of the loop follow the longer-distance Ripon Rowel Walk, offering a glimpse into the region's broader trail network.
