Roecliffe Village
Highlight • Natural
The village sits on the river Ure and another nice place to stop for a while is Roecliffe Pind & Meadows, once a clay pit, now a nature reserve.
There is a well-reviewed pub in the village, The Crown Inn which offers drink, food and accommodation.

The Devil's Arrows
Highlight • Monument
Legend has it that the Devil hurled the stones at nearby Aldborough but they fell short and they landed here. The tallest is 22.5ft, which is taller than stonehenge and the tallest standing stone in the UK after the monolith at Rudstone. It is believed there was once five stones but the fifth was removed in the hope that treasure was buried at its base.

Boroughbridge High Street
Highlight • Settlement
Boroughbridge is halfway between London and Edinburgh so was historically an important stopover for stage coaches. In 1754 the journey was 10 days in summer and 12 in the winter so an arduous journey. No doubt the hospitality of Boroughbridge (then Burrow Bridge) was very welcome indeed.
