- This guide follows a circular 24 mile / 38 kms journey from the A170 near Kirkbymoorside passing through the Tabular Hills to the idyllic village of Hutton le Hole before climbing to the North York Moors. We turn west to follow the little visited Farndale, where we see the wild daffodils grow along the bank of the river Dove.
We climb out of Farndale to the 1,325 ft / 404 m high Blakey Ridge, from where we can see the former railway line (now a bridleway) that goes around the dale. Before dropping down into Rosedale we see three waymarkers: Young Ralph (the symbol of the National Park), Old Ralph and Fat Betty.
Dropping down to the former railway line we see Rosedale East mine that operated 1864-1926 and then down to the valley bottom to Rosedale Abbey - named after a nunnery that was built here in 1154. From here we climb Britain's steepest road, Chimney Bank, to see the Bank Top mine and then return to Hutton le Hole.
The film includes drone footage, footage filmed from a car as well as traditional video and photographs to give an immersive experience to the heart of the North York Moors. It includes a full commentary.

We so lucky to live in this beautiful area and we have walked over most of the area of Ryedale and the moors,we know where to go to avoid the popular hot spots that visitors congregate and spoil the peace and tranquility with cars noisy motorbikes and large walking groups👍🤗Which hostelries to have a meal without having to queue 👍🤗
Rosedale sticks in my mind as we had to abandon an attempt at the Lyke Wake walk, overwhelmed by a severe storm while crossing Rosedale moor. We found a local farm who served ham and eggs. I think I was still a teenager sometime in the 1950s. (We did succeed on our 2nd attempt.)
Very well done and clearly narrated by someone who knew the history very informative,!,,
I went hiking to Rosedale many years ago we camped there for a few days and learned that the Romans mined there also.
I did my family tree and learned I have ancestors who were from this area. Lovely to be able to see it. Many thanks !
Passed through this area many times and its always fascinating due to its industrial past.
Hi very interesting video fantastic landscapes thank you for sharing New member 👍
Just a couple of pointers it’s actually Feversham not Faversham and the the band room is located at the car park at Low Mill next to the public convenience, the picture you show is of the old school house.
in my dad's dialet...the 'howes', were spelled 'Ho"...
