Vandring

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.

Vandring

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.
