The Winskill Stones, near Settle, is a Plantlife site famous for its rich limestone flora. Andy Kearsey of Plantlife will lead us; in the afternoon we hope to visit Tom Lord’s farm at Lower Winskill, a working farm which is also farmed for wildlife, retaining rich natural habitats and also preserving the long history of the farm. (See this article). If the latter is not possible we plan to drive a few miles further up the road to the boardwalk at Malham Tarn, another beautiful and plant-rich site.

There will be a fee for Andy’s time, TBA.

This is an all day event so please bring lunch.

Book with Muff.
