Wetherby Railway Viaduct

Highlight • Monument

Spanning the waters of the River Wharfe to the southern reaches of Wetherby, this abandoned railway bridge forms a connection between the Ebor Way and the Wetherby Railway Path.

In the earlier years of the 2000s, the neighbouring village of Thorp Arch was designated as the favoured site for Leeds United Football Club's training grounds.

View of Wetherby Racecourse

Highlight • Viewpoint

The northern bank of the River Wharfe holds a rich history of horse racing. The present-day Racecourse is situated upon land that once belonged to the Montagu family of Ingmanthorpe Hall. This expanse of land was leased to the race committee, with the inaugural meeting taking place on the 30th of March 1891.

Starting in 1906, the committee embarked on a journey to enhance the course's amenities, commencing with the construction of the enduring 'Bramham' Grandstand – an edifice that stands resolute to this day.
