About

Mid Craven ward encompasses a large rural area in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, centred on the market town of Settle. The landscape is defined by limestone geology, forming scars, pavements, and caves like the extensive Alum Pot system. Agriculture, primarily sheep farming, shapes the open fields and drystone walls. The ward includes the villages of Giggleswick and Langcliffe, with the historic Settle-Carlisle Railway line running through.

The area's economy is supported by tourism, drawn to the natural scenery and outdoor activities such as walking the Three Peaks. Local governance is managed through parish councils. The River Ribble flows through the ward, and the area is known for its traditional agricultural shows and auctions. Settle's 19th-century market hall remains a focal point for the community and local commerce.
