    The Yealands

    theyealandsDuring the mid 17th century, the villages of Yealand Conyers and Yealand Redmayne became associated with the persecuted Quaker movement. George Fox, Quaker leader, preached at secret meetings in the area and in 1692 the Friends Meeting House was built.

    Lying to the west of the Yealands is Leighton Hall, the historic home of the world-renowned Gillow furniture making family and a stunning location for a day out.

    Take a walk up Summerhouse Hill for stunning views, looking out for the stone-built limekiln along the way which serves as a reminder of our industrial heritage.
