Linton Falls Grassington

This is a walk to Linton Falls starting at the village of Grassington, good parking at Linton Car Park at the National Park Centre.

Linton Falls, Wharfedale, Yorkshire

A five minute walk downhill from Grassington car park. After heavy rain standing on the bridge overlooking the falls thundering beneath can be quite spectacular They formed where a fault in the earth's crust shifted millions of years ago, raising the limestone rocks to the north up higher than those to the south.

The nearby weirs once channelled water into a large textile mill, now demolished. Upstream of the Falls there is a restored hydro-electric plant. Grassington is a beautiful village in Upper Wharfedale featuring stunning Yorkshire scenery.

I can recommend The Fountaine Inn nearby for an excellent lunch.

The River Wharfe.
Water level on this mild December day was just right for kayaking. Not too high and not too low.
This was the last day of the superb Grassington Dickensian Christmas Market, just up the walled lane from here.

Linton Falls - Places to Visit in The Yorkshire Dales

Linton Falls lies just outside of the picturesque village of Grassington in The Yorkshire Dales. Had I not stumbled across Linton many years ago while out working, I would have never have known this hidden gem was there. It is a great place to walk with the family and you can also spend some time exploring the surrounding villages too. There is a pay and display car park in Linton which is cheap and there is a public toilet. When rain has been falling the waterfall can become quite powerful and the wooden bridge which spans the falls just optimises The Yorkshire Dales. There are several nice pubs in the area and the village folk are very friendly. The area is dog friendly, though there are some sheep and cows which graze in the area so be sure to shut the gates as you go. A great place to visit when holidaying in The Yorkshire Dales.

Grassington is a market town and civil parish in the Craven district of North Yorkshire, England. The population at the 2011 Census was 1,126. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, the town is situated in Wharfedale, about 8 miles (10 km) north-west from Bolton Abbey, and is surrounded by limestone scenery. Nearby villages include Linton, Threshfield, Hebden, Conistone and Kilnsey.

The Domesday Book lists Grassington as part of the estate of Gamal Barn including 7 carucates of ploughland (840 acres/350ha) including Grassington, Linton and Threshfield. The Norman conquest of England made it part of the lands of Gilbert Tison. But by 1118 Tison had suffered a demotion and his lands returned to the king then given to Lord Percy.

Originally the settlement was spelt as Gherinstone and also was documented as Garsington or Gersington. The name Grassington derives variously from the Scandinavian, Anglo-Saxon and Gothic languages and means either the town of the grassy ings or a farmstead surrounded by grass.

Grassington was historically a township in the parish of Linton in the West Riding of Yorkshire. It became a separate civil parish in 1866, and was transferred to North Yorkshire in 1974. Although often described by local people as a village, Grassington was granted a Royal Charter for a market and fair in 1282 giving it market town status.

Grassington is the main residential and tourist centre in Upper Wharfedale. Centred on its small cobbled square are shops, public houses, the village museum, small cafes, restaurants and hotels. Grassington Folk Museum houses a collection which tells the story of Wharfedale. Grassington Festival is a two-week-long annual event started in 1980, with music, performance and visual arts, held in a number of venues around the village.

Grassington is served by the B6265, which runs between Skipton and Green Hammerton via Pateley Bridge and Boroughbridge (being a more circuitous route that the A59 road which connects Skipton and Green Hammerton). Buses connect Grassington with Ilkley and Skipton operating a moderate service to Skipton, but only a three-day a week service to Ilkley. The town used to have a joint railway station terminus with Threshfield on the Yorkshire Dales Railway. The station was located on the west side of the River Wharfe, so it was not actually in Grassington.
