Reeth Evangelical Congregational Church

Highlight • Other

The church was built in the 1860s. The building originally had a stone cross on the point of the roof above the entrance, but this fell during a great storm of 1893. The external clock was installed in 1903, paid for by public subscription as it was to be of benefit to the whole village.

Reeth Village Green

Highlight • Settlement

Thought of as the capital of Swaledale, Reeth is a village with a history as rich as its scenery. Incredibly, in its mining heyday, it was producing a tenth of England's lead. Today, its industrial past is evident on the high moorlands, while Swaledale is a tranquil hikers' haven, quieter than the more accessible dales further south. There are plenty of places to eat and stay, including the Black Bull, which dates back to 1680.

Jenny Hill

Highlight • Summit

The start of Arkengarthdale. The road takes you out of Reeth & the wildness of the valley is immediately apparent.

Rout options are the long drag to Tan Hill (avoid when there is a westerly, it can take forever!) or left at the CB Inn up Bouldershaw or right shortly after to climb The Stang.

Reeth to Tan Hill Road
