Settle
Settle is a bustling market town that stands on the north-western edge of the Yorkshire Dales. Settle is at its most liveliest and colourful on Tuesdays, when the weekly market takes place attracting traders from far and wide. The market place is surrounded by local businesses – mostly family-owned, with some offering items for sale unique to the Settle area. The centre is dominated by the Shambles, a historic 3-storey building with shops on two levels and houses above, and the Town Hall, built on the site of the toll-booth which was pulled down in 1820.
Situated within Settle is the railway station serving the community with a regular passenger service. A recommended outing is the return journey from Settle to Appleby on the famous Settle-Carlisle Railway constructed between 1869 and 1876.
