Welton Dale

Highlight • Forest

Great area to see local wildlife. Be careful as there are sometimes big gaps in the fence which over-eager dogs could squeeze through.

Archetypal English village with its large village green surrounded by pretty stone houses and two pubs. The open beck runs in front of the houses in Eastgate, each with their own private bridge. The banks of the stream are planted with flowers. A large flat circular stone on the green known as the whipping stone is probably the base of the old market cross but rumour has it that a man was whipped to death here in 1624. https://www.newbaldparishcouncil.gov.uk/about-newbald/

This is clearly a popular route. I never see anyone at the godforsaken hours that I go out hiking and trailrunning (generally start before sunrise in winter), yet I did see plenty of dogwalkers, hikers and runners out and about in Welton Dale and surrounding bridleways and footpaths. As a result a lot of the tracks are very muddy. Not boggy, you won't lose a shoe, but they can be very slippery in winter.

All Saints’ Church is 12th Century in origin and was restored by the Victorians in the late 19th Century. It is situated almost at the foot of Brantingham Dale in an open aspect. It is without doubt one of the most picturesque churches in the East Riding of Yorkshire. A fairly detailed history of the church compiled in 1965 and updated in 2014 is available as a pdf at https://d3hgrlq6yacptf.cloudfront.net/5f115a55324ea/content/pages/documents/1573224210.pdf

Take a hike here in winter, early morning or late afternoon when there is less natural light, as the hundreds of lights around the church wall at ground level are quite spectacular. There has been a church in this location since the reign of William Rufus in the 11th century, as coins from the period were found in the foundations of part of the church during its 19th-century restoration.

Picturesque village with ample parking around the vicinity of the pond, which is quite spectacular around Christmas, when backlit by hundreds of lights on the wall around St. Helen's Church.
