A little history
Cross Hills grew as a small market town at the junction of important routes through the Yorkshire Dales. The Craven district — with its limestone scenery and dales — surrounds the town. The area has strong connections to the textile industry of the Airedale valley.
Skipton is close for the full market town experience. The Nidderdale AONB for excellent walking. The Craven district for genuine Yorkshire Dales exploration without the crowds.
