Lichens of Upper Swaledale

  • Keld Resource Centre Keld Richmond, North Yorkshire, DL11 6LJ (map)

A walk led by Sue & Les Knight who live locally and record the lichens of upper Swaledale. There will be an initial introductory session, with hand lenses, in the visitor centre to allow familiarisation with some species before a local walk. The speed of lichen walks is often described as ‘glacial’ to allow everyone to study the various specimens.
