| | | Tell me more! | Famous around the world for On Ilkla' Moor Baht 'At, the song which celebrates it and which is now pretty much Yorkshire's 'national anthem', Ilkley Moor looms over the genteel West Yorkshire town of Ilkley - and White Wells is one of its most well-known landmarks. The building is named after its spring water bath and well which some people believe dates back to Roman times and which allegedly has healing properties.
For its part, Ilkley's been the site of numerous UFO sightings out on the moor, Jimi Hendrix once played here at the Troutbeck Hotel, the town is the home of a very famous tea shop, and an annual literary festival is held here which attracts some very big names like Benjamin Zephaniah, Jamie Oliver and Ian Rankin to name but three!
But, it's the moor which it could be argued MAKES Ilkley. With the Cow and Calf Rocks, White Wells perched on top, and all that heather - it just can't be beaten if you want a true taste of West Yorkshire!
| Getting there... | You can't miss the moors once you get to Ilkley, which is easily reachable on the A65 heading towards Skipton. There are also regular bus and train services to the town.White Wells is visible if you approach the moors from Ilkley town centre. It's a bit of a climb up to White Wells, but it IS Worth it.
