Clapham Beck Bridge

Highlight • River

The bridge at Clapham crosses Clapham Beck, which starts as Fell Beck high up on Ingleborough.

The village of Clapham is as lovely as this bridge and worth a look around. It is on the Way of the Roses and makes for a nice stopover or cycling base. There is a village store and two cafes which are used to feeding hungry riders.

For more details visit the village's website claphamyorkshire.co.uk
