How well do you know Settle? Appearances can be deceptive: it's much more than simply the collection of attractive shops and historic buildings clustered around an ancient square. Dig a little deeper and you'll discover many more hidden charms. Which of these have you found, and which others have I missed?
- Settle Folly, home to the Museum and Coffee House
- Grade I and II listed buildings around the Market Place. Look for plaques commemorating Elgar's stay in Settle; Benjamin Waugh, founder of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children; and the wonderfully named Goad & Butchers solicitors
Victoria Hall, a Grade II listed original Victorian Music Hall
- Castleberg towering above Settle
- Settle Station, famous thanks to the Settle-Carlisle Railway, signal box & water tower
- Gallery on the Green, one of the world’s smallest galleries - in a former telephone kiosk
- Ye Olde Naked Man Café - one of England's most photographed cafés
- Victoria Cave where evidence of prehistoric hunters was found - take care when visiting
Settle Hydro - a reverse Archimedean screw system generating electricity for the community
