Downstream View of Malham Beck with the Old Clapper Bridge As Malham Beck runs out of Malham Cove and on towards Malham village, it passes under this ancient stone Clapper Bridge. This type of bridge was generally build by farmers, to enable transferring sheep across a stream and into new pastures. The name is based on the sound of the sheep's feet as they run across. As for the Beck, shortly after it passes through Malham village, it runs into the nascent River Aire.

An Abandoned House at the Foot of New Knott Hill, Near Gordale Scar in Malhamdale Gordale Lane runs to the east out of Malham village and less that a mile along you'll see this abandoned house, at the foot of New Knott Hill. It looks as though it could have once been a fine family home, but is clearly no longer economical or practical. This picture appears in the following picture tour: |
