More about this scene
The village had once been a centre for lead-mining, but by 1900 it was once again reliant upon agriculture, though there was still some quarrying carried out in the locality. The railway finally arrived at the village in 1902, with the opening of the line to Skipton. Here groups of children have gathered to be photographed in the broad cobbled square. The fast-flowing River Wharfe runs just outside the village.
