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.

A very snowy March

Well after a very snowy weekend, groups finally managed to escape. Cheshunt and Sutton High changed their plan but still carried out a very productive few days to prepare the students for their AS skills and Core paper exam.

For some amazing photos have a look at the Twitter and Facebook groups.
