About Me

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.

Good Luck Corinne and Becky

Recently two tutors at Malham have found permanent positions at other FSC centres. Becky Casson moved a couple of months ago to Snowdonia to Rhyd-y-creuau. This week Corinne Cox has moved to Juniper Hall in Surrey.

 We wish them both luck in their new adventures with the FSC, and they are always welcome to come visit.
