Pennine Dales Fringe, Upland and Upland Fringe

Author(s): Jeremy Lake

This is a long, narrow zone marking the transition from the upland landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales in the west to the lower lying, fertile vale landscapes to the east. It extends from the River Wharf in the south to the edge of the North Pennines near Barnard Castle in the north. Of the area, 4% is urban, 84% is cultivated, and 8% is woodland, while 23% falls within the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
