About Skipton
- Skipton Castle is one of the best-preserved medieval castles in England, having survived the Civil War largely intact. The castle was built in the 11th century and was the seat of the powerful Clifford family for over 300 years. The castle is open to visitors and the interior, including the great hall, the kitchen, and the dungeon, gives an outstanding impression of medieval castle life.
- Skipton's market is one of the most popular in the north of England, held four days a week on the broad High Street. The market has been held in Skipton since 1204 and is one of the oldest in Yorkshire. The High Street, which runs from the castle to the canal, is lined with independent shops, cafes, and restaurants.
- The Leeds-Liverpool Canal passes through the centre of Skipton, and the canal basin is a popular destination for visitors. Canal boat trips are available from the basin, and the towpath provides a pleasant walking and cycling route through the town and into the surrounding countryside.
- Bolton Abbey, a few miles to the east, is one of the most beautiful ruined monasteries in England. The priory, founded in 1154, is set in a spectacular landscape on the banks of the River Wharfe, and the ruins of the nave are still used as a parish church. The Bolton Abbey estate offers outstanding walking country.
