Wilson's Plantation, North Yorkshire

Kirk Bank

Uploader's Comments

The lane running westwards from Kirkby Malzeard towards Bagwith House and the moor edge is known as Kirk Bank. Its straightness would suggest that it was aligned around the time of 19thC parliamentary enclosures, although it is probably close to the line of medieval trackways that led from the markets in Kirkby to Upper Nidderdale.
