Imagine a subterranean landscape, beautifully lit, with gushing streams and waterfalls, exotic cave formations, and a huge ice-age cavern adorned with thousands of stalactites.
The formations in White Scar Cave are of great variety, but they all depend on the same chemical process for their creation. The rainwater which trickles through the cracks and fissures in the limestone is acidic, because of the carbon dioxide dissolved in it from the atmosphere and the plant debris in... [more]

Until 1837 the secrets of Ingleborough Cave were hidden behind large natural calcite dams behind which water had ponded, submerging much of the passage beyond. These were broken down following a flood, to reveal a wonderland of sculpted passages and beautiful cave formations which have been delighting our visitors ever since.

Perched high on a cliff, the gaunt remains of this once magnificent abbey stand high above the picturesque seaside town of Whitby.
The first abbey was founded in 657 by the formidable St Hilda, a princess of the Northumbrian royal house, whose Saxon name Hild means 'battle'. Recent archaeological research undertaken by English Heritage suggests that it was once a bustling settlement, as well as the burial place of monarchs, the setting of an epoch-making international meeting...

Aldborough, among the northernmost urban centres in the Roman Empire, succeeded Stanwick as the tribal stronghold of the Romanised Brigantes, the largest tribe in Britain. One corner of the defences is clearly laid out amid the towering trees of a Victorian arboretum, a tranquil place for picnics.
Two almost complete mosaic pavements can be viewed in their original position, and the site museum's fine collection of Roman finds make this the best place in Yorkshire to study the... [more]

Set amid woodland below the escarpment of the North York Moors and the Cleveland Way National Trail, the ruins of this 14th-century monastery represent the best preserved 'charterhouse' of the 10 Carthusian monasteries in Britain. A reconstructed monk's cell and herb garden offer visitors a glimpse into the daily lives of the medieval residents. The gardens - remodelled in the early 20th century - are now a haven for wildlife, including the famous 'Priory Stoats'. [more]

'Everywhere peace, everywhere serenity, and a marvellous freedom from the tumult of the world.' These words, written over eight centuries ago by the monastery's third abbot St Aelred, could describe Rievaulx today. Set in a beautiful and tranquil valley, it is among the most atmospheric and complete of all the ruined abbeys of the north.
Words are not the only link to Rievaulx's medieval monks. Over the past few years, the site has become something of an archaeological... [more]

Byland was one of the great Yorkshire Cistercian abbeys, housing at its zenith well over 200 monks and lay brothers. Much of its huge cathedral-sized church survives, including the whole north side and the greater part of the 13th-century west front. With its mixture of rounded Romanesque and pointed Gothic arches, this proclaims the arrival of the new Gothic style which Byland pioneered in the north. Its great circular rose window, now surviving only in part, was probably the model for the... [more]
