    Too many happy memories of camping in Clapham as I was growing up. We camped in a field to the left of the main road with Clapham village on the right. There was a lady who had a Morris Minor in her garage and she had so many ducks. Camped at Clapham twice a year for years and would trek up towards the cave every morning to cook our breakfast while sitting on the side of the hill. As children and teenagers we loved to do this and then would either wander further, explore the caves or trek back down to our tent and spend time looking into the tiny stream which runs alongside the main road. Thank you for this as I now am unable to visit as I live in Dorset and cannot get up to my Yorkshire X

      Hi Irene, we had a great day filming at Clapham and there are still plenty of ducks. When we finished filming at 6pm, it was a nice hot day, we went to the pub for a drink and decided to ask if they had a room for the night. The landlord let us stay in one of his best rooms at a discounted price. We sat outside and ate our evening meal overlooking the stream and watching all the tiny birds flying around, beautiful. It was a day we will never forget. All the best The Taxi Driver.

      Hi Sikander thank you. We only walk slowly ourselves so we can enjoy it more. When you get nearly to the top of the waterfalls at Ingleton there is a cafe for a cup of tea and a rest. We are sure you and your family will love it and want to go back and do some more walks in the Dales. Thanks for dropping us a line all the best The Taxi Driver

    History Lesson. On the 25th March 2011 an aircraft Cessna 152 G-BJKY of Westair was being used for a night flying lesson from Blackpool Airport with a student and instructor onboard when it flew into the south eastern side of Ingleborough. The two men were able to contact the emergency services who located the crash site with a few hours and took them to hospital in Lancaster. Clear impact marks still reside on the side on the mountain showing the crash site today.

      Hi Robutube 1 we don't know what type of fungus it is, we come across a lot of strange things on our walks but that's half the fun. All the best The Taxi Driver
