Swaledale by Andrew Fleming

This book reveals through words, line drawings and photographs, the history and archaeology of Swaledale, a well-loved part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Andrew Fleming shows that this classic Pennine landscape holds clues to the very different character of the landscapes of the past and shows how the Dark Age kingdom of Swar, medieval townships, commons, old wood pastures, lead mines, trackways and Bronze Age ring-cairs all emerge with a story to tell.
