The market town of Leyburn
has developed as the traditional centre for mid-Wensleydale at the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales. It is the perfect base for travel, shopping and trade.
There is a fantastic range of independently owned shops and services and plentiful
accommodation.
Many local businesses are members of ShopLocal North Yorkshire - a lifetime membership costs just £2.50 and gives you great discounts and promotions at member businesses throughout North Yorkshire.
On
Fridays there is an open-air market in the square and there are livestock sales
at the auction mart. Farmers' markets are held throughout the year. Several unusual and world-class businesses operate from the Leyburn Business
Park, where the largest provincial Auction Centre in the country, Tennants,
is also located.
Leyburn
'Shawl', just a short walk from the Market Place, gives superb views over Wensleydale.Leyburn is linked
to Middleham, 2 miles away, by one of the most unusual river bridges in England,
built in 1829 as one of the first examples of a suspension bridge.
