The Department for Communities and Local Government considered reorganising North Yorkshire County Council's administrative structure by abolishing the seven district councils and the county council to create a North Yorkshire unitary authority. The changes were planned to be implemented no later than 1 April 2009. This was rejected on 25 July 2007 so the County Council and District Council structure will remain.
The River Esk is a river in North Yorkshire, England that empties into the North Sea at Whitby after a course of around 28 miles (45km) through the valley of Eskdale, named after the river itself.
Overview
Due to its rural nature, the river is clean and healthy, supporting a wealth of wildlife. Salmon spawn right up through Eskdale, and a number of "leaps" are provided to enable them to travel through weirs on the course. There are clearly visible examples at Ruswarp, where the tidal stretch through to Whitby begins and at Sleights. Around Whitby the Esk has a large population of sea trout, and the river is noted for freshwater pearl mussels, although these are threatened with extinction due to buildups of silt in the river. The Esk is also the only major river in Yorkshire to drain directly into the North Sea.
The river rises at the Esklets on Westerdale Moor in the North York Moors, flowing through Westerdale before merging with a large number of becks from the surrounding hills, including Tower, Baysdale, Sleddale, Danby, Great Fryup, Stonegate, Glaisdale and Murk becks. Running east through the valley known as Eskdale it leaves the moors via the villages of Sleights and Ruswarp, between which it forms the boundary of the North York Moors, and reaches the North Sea three miles later by bisecting the resort of Whitby.
Yorkshire (/ˈjɔːrkʃər/ or /ˈjɔːrkʃɪər/) is a historic county of Northern England and the largest in the United Kingdom. Due to its great size in comparison to other English counties, functions have been undertaken over time by its subdivisions, which have also been subject to periodic reform. Throughout these changes, Yorkshire has continued to be recognised as a geographical territory and cultural region. The name is familiar and well understood across the United Kingdom and is in common use in the media and the military, and also features in the titles of current areas of civil administration such as North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and East Riding of Yorkshire.
Within the borders of the historic county of Yorkshire are areas which are widely considered to be among the greenest in England, due to the vast stretches of unspoiled countryside in the Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors and to the open aspect of some of the major cities. Yorkshire has sometimes been nicknamed "God's Own County" or "God's Own Country".
In the redistribution which took effect for the 1868 general election the two divisions were redistributed into three. Eastern West Riding of Yorkshire was created and the Northern and Southern divisions modified. Each of the three divisions returned two members.
According to the 2011 UK census, Westerdale parish had a population of 149, a decrease on the 2001 UK census figure of 175.
Geography
The village
Westerdale village is a single street of around 25 houses, to the north east of a small stream which joins the Esk near Hunters Sty bridge.
There is a church - Christ Church, and a small, disused Wesleyanchapel.
Close to the church can be found the Village Hall (formerly a small schoolhouse), a postbox and a telephone box.
Westerdale Side
Westerdale Side is part of Westerdale, but is best approached from near the neighbouring village of Castleton.
It is accessed by a narrow road running along the southwest of Castleton Rig.
Westerdale Moor
Westerdale Moor is an extensive upland area surrounding the farmland in Westerdale. At its highest, Westerdale Moor rises to 429 metres in the vicinity of Ralphs Cross, and Baysdale Moor to the south-west reaches 433 metres at Stony Ridge - the second highest point of the North York Moors.

Knaresborough - One of the Prettiest Towns in Yorkshire - North Yorkshire
Knaresborough has to be one of the prettiest towns in Yorkshire. The River Nidd Gorge carves its way through the town and beautiful historic buildings some 900 years old, teeter over the edge looking down at the river. We have visited many towns in Yorkshire in other videos but this has to be one of the prettiest towns in Yorkshire. It has more than just the historical aspects of a Castle and the iconic Knaresborough Viaduct, but riverside walks along the famous former Royal Forest of Knaresborough.

Welcome to Yorkshire, in this video we are visiting 2 of the most important and famous abbeys in England as well as the gorgeous town of Knaresborough, all located within North Yorkshire.
Places visited in the video:
- Whitby Abbey
- Whitby
- Rievaulx Abbey
- Knaresborough
These are 4 places I would recommend to you when visiting North Yorkshire as they are some of the most picturesque and breathtaking locations we've seen! Whitby Abbey is a famous abbey located next to the town of Whitby, it has had a very long and interesting history, and the coastal town of Whitby is full of some of its own histories including the fact that Bram Stoker based elements of his novel Dracula from the Abbey itself and he was also staying in this town at the time or writing it!
Rievaulx Abbey is just as grand, if not even grander than Whitby Abbey with many more of its won histories to learn about! and lots of remains give you a real idea of how it would have looked in its prime!
The Town of Knaresborough is so iconic with its victorian viaduct towering over the River Nidd flowing through the centre of this gorgeous town. There are many things to do here including hiring a boat on the River Nidd, exploring the castle and gardens in the town and more... also, look out for the painted windows here!

Welcome to Yorkshire, in this video we are visiting 2 of the most important and famous abbeys in England as well as the gorgeous town of Knaresborough, all located within North Yorkshire.
Places visited in the video:
- Whitby Abbey
- Whitby
- Rievaulx Abbey
- Knaresborough
These are 4 places I would recommend to you when visiting North Yorkshire as they are some of the most picturesque and breathtaking locations we've seen! Whitby Abbey is a famous abbey located next to the town of Whitby, it has had a very long and interesting history, and the coastal town of Whitby is full of some of its own histories including the fact that Bram Stoker based elements of his novel Dracula from the Abbey itself and he was also staying in this town at the time or writing it!
Rievaulx Abbey is just as grand, if not even grander than Whitby Abbey with many more of its won histories to learn about! and lots of remains give you a real idea of how it would have looked in its prime!
The Town of Knaresborough is so iconic with its victorian viaduct towering over the River Nidd flowing through the centre of this gorgeous town. There are many things to do here including hiring a boat on the River Nidd, exploring the castle and gardens in the town and more... also, look out for the painted windows here!

Is Whitby the Best Seaside Town in England?
Whitby is on the North Yorkshire Coast and not your average Seaside Town. But what makes Whitby so special?
Join us for a walk and the history of Whitby including a visit to Whitby Abbey. Captain Cook, Bram Stoker and some wonderful historic streets and lanes make it a wonderful place to visit in what we think could be the best seaside town in England.

Yorkshire has been on our list to explore more, ever since we visited York. So we have headed back for a Yorkshire travel series starting next week on the channel.
We will visit West Yorkshire, Oakworth and home to the Railway Children, take a train ride on the Keighley Worth Valley Railway and walk in the footsteps of the Railway Children.
Haworth was home to the famous Brontë Sisters, we immerse ourselves into their lives and the places they visited, finding inspiration for their world-famous novels. Even taking a hike up to Top Withens to see what Emily Brontë saw for inspiration to write Wuthering Heights.
Take a stroll along the canal at Hebdon Bridge and drive the Dales and visit Grassington a beautiful town that is the backdrop to Darrowby in the new series of All Creatures Great and Small.
Passing Thirsk, we pop in at the veterinary surgery where James Herriot was penned and it all started at James Herriot World.
Heatbeat was filmed in Groatlands in the North Yorkshire Moors so we could not resist paying a visit to the village and also seeing the station famous as Hogsmead Station in Harry Potter.
Castle Howard is next seen in Brideshead and Bridgeton more recently. This is a fantastic stately home with so much history that we wanted to share with you.
Finally, we arrive at the coast and Whitby where Bram Stoker found inspiration for Dracula with the views of Whitby Abbey. Ending our adventures in RobinHoods Bay a super cute fishing village with lots of surprises.
We hope you enjoy our travel adventures in Yorkshire.

River Esk Kingfisher, Sleights Near Whitby North Yorkshire
Ive been trying to compile a lot of short clips of the Autumn Months around Whitby, The North York Moors And The Esk Valley.
Today I was at Sleights watching the fish jumping at Sleights Dam Salmon Leap. Whilst there this Kingfisher turned up and sat right next to me. Sadly I only have my 200mm lens at the moment as my longer lens is currently with Fuji for repair.
As always when things turn up unexpected I wasn't quite ready for his arrival, but I grabbed what footage I could and I hope to add these shots of the Kingfisher to my Autumn video which I hope to compile in November and December so please keep an eye out for that one when I release it.
Once again thanks for looking. Please give the video a thumbs up and subscribe to this channel for future updates from the area.

Salmon And Sea Trout - River Esk - A Yorkshire Migration
The annual return of Salmon and Sea Trout to The Yorkshire Esk. Every year fish return to the river in which they were born. After several years at sea the fish return to spawn and produce the next generation of migratory fish.
Entering The Esk at Whitby the fish swim as far inland as Kildale which is some 20 miles from the sea.
Many of these fish have been as far as Greenland and Iceland and are thought to return to the exact gravel bed on which they were born many years earlier
Fish tagged at Ruswarp have been caught in Iceland in passed years. The river Esk is one of England's top sea trout rivers, and at one time (due to pollution) was Yorkshires only Salmon river.
Scientists believe that once in the general area of the north sea, these fish can smell the correct river to return to...

Knaresborough has to be one of the prettiest towns in Yorkshire. The River Nidd Gorge carves its way through the town and beautiful historic buildings some 900 years old, teeter over the edge looking down at the river. We have visited many towns in Yorkshire in other videos but this has to be one of the prettiest towns in Yorkshire. It has more than just the historical aspects of a Castle and the iconic Knaresborough Viaduct, but riverside walks along the famous former Royal Forest of Knaresborough. The folklore tales of Mother Shipton and the petrifying well, to local hero Blind Jack. It is truly a fantastic place to spend a day, boating, walking and soaking up the atmosphere.
Join us for a lovely walk, some history and details about the local attractions in this pretty Yorkshire town.

Welcome to Yorkshire, in this video we are visiting 2 of the most important and famous abbeys in England as well as the gorgeous town of Knaresborough, all located within North Yorkshire.
Places visited in the video:
- Whitby Abbey
- Whitby
- Rievaulx Abbey
- Knaresborough
These are 4 places I would recommend to you when visiting North Yorkshire as they are some of the most picturesque and breathtaking locations we've seen! Whitby Abbey is a famous abbey located next to the town of Whitby, it has had a very long and interesting history, and the coastal town of Whitby is full of some of its own histories including the fact that Bram Stoker based elements of his novel Dracula from the Abbey itself and he was also staying in this town at the time or writing it!
Rievaulx Abbey is just as grand, if not even grander than Whitby Abbey with many more of its won histories to learn about! and lots of remains give you a real idea of how it would have looked in its prime!
The Town of Knaresborough is so iconic with its victorian viaduct towering over the River Nidd flowing through the centre of this gorgeous town. There are many things to do here including hiring a boat on the River Nidd, exploring the castle and gardens in the town and more... also, look out for the painted windows here!

Is Whitby the Best Seaside Town in England?
Whitby is on the North Yorkshire Coast and not your average Seaside Town. But what makes Whitby so special?
Join us for a walk and the history of Whitby including a visit to Whitby Abbey. Captain Cook, Bram Stoker and some wonderful historic streets and lanes make it a wonderful place to visit in what we think could be the best seaside town in England.

Yorkshire has been on our list to explore more, ever since we visited York. So we have headed back for a Yorkshire travel series starting next week on the channel.
We will visit West Yorkshire, Oakworth and home to the Railway Children, take a train ride on the Keighley Worth Valley Railway and walk in the footsteps of the Railway Children.
Haworth was home to the famous Brontë Sisters, we immerse ourselves into their lives and the places they visited, finding inspiration for their world-famous novels. Even taking a hike up to Top Withens to see what Emily Brontë saw for inspiration to write Wuthering Heights.
Take a stroll along the canal at Hebdon Bridge and drive the Dales and visit Grassington a beautiful town that is the backdrop to Darrowby in the new series of All Creatures Great and Small.
Passing Thirsk, we pop in at the veterinary surgery where James Herriot was penned and it all started at James Herriot World.
Heatbeat was filmed in Groatlands in the North Yorkshire Moors so we could not resist paying a visit to the village and also seeing the station famous as Hogsmead Station in Harry Potter.
Castle Howard is next seen in Brideshead and Bridgeton more recently. This is a fantastic stately home with so much history that we wanted to share with you.
Finally, we arrive at the coast and Whitby where Bram Stoker found inspiration for Dracula with the views of Whitby Abbey. Ending our adventures in RobinHoods Bay a super cute fishing village with lots of surprises.
We hope you enjoy our travel adventures in Yorkshire.

The Department for Communities and Local Government considered reorganising North Yorkshire County Council's administrative structure by abolishing the seven district councils and the county council to create a North Yorkshire unitary authority. The changes were planned to be implemented no later than 1 April 2009. This was rejected on 25 July 2007 so the County Council and District Council structure will remain.

Ive been trying to compile a lot of short clips of the Autumn Months around Whitby, The North York Moors And The Esk Valley.
Today I was at Sleights watching the fish jumping at Sleights Dam Salmon Leap. Whilst there this Kingfisher turned up and sat right next to me. Sadly I only have my 200mm lens at the moment as my longer lens is currently with Fuji for repair.
As always when things turn up unexpected I wasn't quite ready for his arrival, but I grabbed what footage I could and I hope to add these shots of the Kingfisher to my Autumn video which I hope to compile in November and December so please keep an eye out for that one when I release it.
Once again thanks for looking. Please give the video a thumbs up and subscribe to this channel for future updates from the area.
The annual return of Salmon and Sea Trout to The Yorkshire Esk. Every year fish return to the river in which they were born. After several years at sea the fish return to spawn and produce the next generation of migratory fish.
Entering The Esk at Whitby the fish swim as far inland as Kildale which is some 20 miles from the sea.
Many of these fish have been as far as Greenland and Iceland and are thought to return to the exact gravel bed on which they were born many years earlier
Fish tagged at Ruswarp have been caught in Iceland in passed years. The river Esk is one of England's top sea trout rivers, and at one time (due to pollution) was Yorkshires only Salmon river.
Scientists believe that once in the general area of the north sea, these fish can smell the correct river to return to. That has to be one of the most amazing facts in nature.
On the right days if you wait patiently on the river bank you can see the fish returning and making thier passage upstream. River Esk migratory fish swim as far up the river as Commondale and Kildale which is roughly 20 miles from the mouth of The Esk at Whitby.
Danby to Lealholm , on the way we visit the Moors National Park Centre.See the wonderful wood carvings also where Salmon travel the length of the Esk to spawn. View the wonderful old Duck Bridge from the ground and air, travel down the river via the Danby to Fryup road bridge to Lealholm.
