Reeth Evangelical Congregational Church

Highlight • Other

The church was built in the 1860s. The building originally had a stone cross on the point of the roof above the entrance, but this fell during a great storm of 1893. The external clock was installed in 1903, paid for by public subscription as it was to be of benefit to the whole village.

View from Cuckoo Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

The views from Cuckoo Hill (425m) south towards both Reeth and Grinton are extraordinary: the views over Swaledale from just under Fremington Edge are so extensive that a person seems to grow somehow inside...

There is an old barn here in the field that somehow makes the view from up here practically postcard-like. Definitely worth taking a break here to take it all in.

Reeth Bridge

Highlight • River

The stone bridge is a Grade II listed structure and one of the key historic crossings of the River Swale, linking Reeth with Grinton and the old Corpse Way route. Despite its modest size, it has survived multiple major Swaledale floods, making it one of the more quietly resilient pieces of infrastructure in the dale.

Reeth Village Green

Highlight • Settlement

Thought of as the capital of Swaledale, Reeth is a village with a history as rich as its scenery. Incredibly, in its mining heyday, it was producing a tenth of England's lead. Today, its industrial past is evident on the high moorlands, while Swaledale is a tranquil hikers' haven, quieter than the more accessible dales further south. There are plenty of places to eat and stay, including the Black Bull, which dates back to 1680.
