About Me

Malham Tarn Field Centre, situated near Malham Tarn in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, North Yorkshire, England. Follow this blog to keep up to date with current goings on at the Tarn.
The centre is run by the Field Studies Council and is popular with both geography and biology students, as well as the wider public. Opened in 1947, the Centre celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2007.Within walking distance of the Centre are famous limestone features including Malham Cove, Gordale Scar and spectacular karst landscapes. The route of the Pennine Way footpath runs very close to the buildings. Nearby habitats include limestone pavement, grazed and ungrazed grassland, woodland and species-rich fen, acid peat pools and stony hill streams. Malham Tarn itself is one of only eight upland alkaline lakes in Europe.

Recently we have welcomed new staff to the Centre. Luke Yates and Ade Ogunboro have joined as part of the domestic team to help in the day to day running of the centre. Becky Casson has been involved with the FSC trainee tutor scheme, and will join the existing education members in delivering many courses including Geography and Biology. We would like to extent a warm welcome from the Malham team.
