About

The Settle, Hellifield & Horton area lies within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, characterised by its limestone uplands, river valleys, and pastoral farmland. The market town of Settle serves as a central hub, with its historic buildings centred around the Shambles. The landscape is defined by the River Ribble and the imposing presence of Ingleborough, one of the famous Three Peaks, shaping the surrounding fells and moorland.

Railway heritage is central here, with the Settle-Carlisle Line offering dramatic viaduct views, most notably the iconic Ribblehead Viaduct north of Horton-in-Ribblesdale. The area's geology supports extensive cave systems and scars, with Horton noted as a traditional start point for peak-bagging walks. Farming remains a visible part of the economy, with stone barns and drystone walls crisscrossing the grassy slopes.
