The village of Kilnsey is a small collection of stone built Yorkshire Dales cottages, many dating back to the 1600s. The Old Hall in the village is believed to have been a medieval administrative site for the monks of Fountains Abbey who farmed huge flocks of sheep in the area. Most of the present building dates from 1648. The most notable feature of Kilnsey is a large limestone cliff called Kilnsey Crag. Photograph taken February 2014
