High Hall is a historic building in Appletreewick, a village in North Yorkshire in England. The house was built in 1535, by the father of William Craven, a Lord Mayor of London. The building was altered in the 17th century. The house was Grade II* listed in 1954. It was extensively restored in the early 21st century, and was then made available as a holiday let. In 2023, it was placed on the market, for £2.5 million. The stone house has three storeys and a basement. It is two bays wide, and has a central porch. On the ground floor is the great hall, which has an eight-light mullioned and transomed window, with some 17th century diamond pane glazing. There are similar, smaller windows around the rest of the house, with the five illuminating the staircase being stepped. There is a further porch on the right-hand side. Inside, the great hall has an inglenook fireplace and diamond-shaped stone paving. Above it is a drawing room with a frieze dating from about 1600. Many of the original fittings survive, including the dogleg staircase.

St John the Baptist's Church, Appletreewick

St John's Church is an Anglican church in Appletreewick, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The building was originally constructed in the 17th century, as a pair of cottages. Appletreewick fell within the parish of St Wilfrid's Church, Burnsall, and in the 1890s William Stavert was appointed as its minister. Stavert decided to turn the derelict cottages into a chapel-of-ease, and he designed the new church himself. It was completed in 1898, and was Grade II listed in 1954. The single-storey building is constructed of stone with a stone slate roof. It consists of a single, rectangular, cell, and has four bays. The doorway has a chamfered surround and a four-centred arched head, and the windows are mullioned.

The road then turns into Hartlington Moor Lane, which goes up to Grimwith Reservoir. Hartlington is one of the contenders for the smallest and least populous village in the Yorkshire Dales, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for its outstanding natural beauty – and even though it is small, it and the surrounding villages are at the centre of attention of hikers and tourists. Hartlington is home to Burnsall Park, which is a very popular spot for tourists and residents of the nearby towns and villages to visit and relax on the banks of the River Wharfe. In 2022, the park went viral on the social media platform TikTok, which has caused the park to receive an influx of customers. Until 1974 it was part of the West Riding of Yorkshire. From 1974 to 2023 it was part of the district of Craven, it is now administered by the unitary North Yorkshire Council.
