About

Bedale sits in Hambleton district of North Yorkshire on the A684, with a market place at its core and Bedale Beck running close by. The town has a mix of trading streets, civic buildings and places that mark its market history; a regular market and occasional fairs still draw people from surrounding villages. A short distance to the west, the Wensleydale Railway runs through Leeming Bar station, where heritage trains run toward Leyburn and give a direct, tangible link to the region’s rail past.

Snape lies a few miles from Bedale as a small village among arable fields and pasture. Footpaths and minor lanes connect farms, hedgerows and a parish church, and walkers often use these routes to reach the market town. Local land use is mainly farming, with seasonal changes visible in the field patterns and roadside verges. Small clusters of houses, a village green and the occasional stone-built former farmstead give the area its settled, rural character.
