About Settle
- The Settle-Carlisle Railway, one of the most scenic railway lines in England, has its southern terminus at Settle. The line, built between 1869 and 1876, crosses the Pennines via the famous Ribblehead Viaduct and passes through some of the most dramatic scenery in the Yorkshire Dales. The railway was threatened with closure in the 1980s but was saved following a major public campaign and is now one of the most popular heritage railway routes in England.
- Malham Cove, a few miles north of Settle, is one of the most dramatic natural features in the Yorkshire Dales. The cove is a curved limestone cliff 80 metres high, formed by a waterfall that flowed over the edge at the end of the last Ice Age. The limestone pavement at the top of the cove is one of the finest in England and is a National Nature Reserve.
- Gordale Scar, close to Malham, is a dramatic limestone gorge with waterfalls and overhanging cliffs. The gorge was formed by the collapse of a cave system and is one of the most impressive natural features in the Yorkshire Dales. The gorge has been painted by many artists, including J.M.W. Turner.
- Victoria Cave, above Settle, was discovered in 1838 and has yielded some of the most important archaeological finds in the north of England, including the bones of hippopotamus, rhinoceros, and straight-tusked elephant from the last interglacial period, as well as Roman artefacts and prehistoric human remains.
