Historical Description

Aysgarth, or Attescane, a village situated on the river Ure. Here are several water-falls, both above and below the bridge; the whole range occupying nearly half a mile. This should be particularly remembered, otherwise a stranger might miss the Force, where the whole body of the river, which is of considerable breadth, pours down an irregular and broken ledge of rocks in several places, in a fine ravine, surrounded by hills covered with trees. Over the river is a bridge of one arch, which rises thirty-two feet, and spans seventy-one. The romantic situation of the handsome church of Aysgarth, on an eminence, solitarily overlooking those cataracts, the decency of the structure within and without, its perfect retirement, the rural church-yard, the dying sounds of water, amidst woods and rocks wildly intermixed, with the variety and magnitude of the surrounding hills, concur to render this scene at once awful and picturesque in a very high degree. The falls that are above the bridge are seen on descending to it, but are viewed to greater advantage on the return. They are then beheld through a spacious light arch, which presents the river at every step, in a variety of forms. On the left is the steeple, emerging from a copse. From the bridge the water falls, near half a mile, upon a surface of stone, in some places quite smooth, in others worn into great cavities, and enclosed by bold and shrubbed cliffs; in others it is interrupted by huge masses of rock, standing upright in the middle of the current. It is every where changing its face, and exhibits some grand specimens before it comes to the chief descent, called the Force. No words can do justice to the grandeur of this scene, which was said by Dr. Pococke, to exceed that of the cataracts of the Nile. The bridge has on it the date 1539, which is probably a stone of the old bridge, the present one seeming of much later date. This beautiful and romantic scene is thus described by the author of "Wensley Dale. "

"But now, O Aysgarth! let my rugged verse

The wonders of thy cataracts rehearse;

Long ere the toiling sheets to view appear They sound a prelude to the pausing ear.

Now in rough accents, by the pendent wood,

Rolls in stern majesty the foaming flood;

Revolving eddies now, with raging sway

To Aysgarth’s ample arch incline their way.

Playful and slow the curling circles move,

As when soft breezes fan the waving grove;

Till prone again, with tumult’s wildest roar

Recoil the billows, reels the giddy shore;

Dash’d from its rocky bed, the winnow’d spray

Remounts the regions of the cloudy way,

While warring columns in fierce combats join,

And make the rich, rude, thund’ring scene divine."

Not far from hence are the ruins of Fors Abbey, a monastery of Cistertian monks, brought from Sevigny by Ararius, son of Bardulph, in the year 1145: made subject to Byland, from whom an abbot and monks were sent in the year 1150, who, a few years after, were removed to Toreval.

Topography of Great Britain (1829) by George Alexander Cooke

AYSGARTH is a parish, township, village and the head of a union, pleasantly situated on the south side of the river Ure, or Yore, in Wensleydale, with a station 1 mile north-east on the Northallerton and Hawes branch of the North Eastern railway, 8 ¼ miles west-south-west from Leyburn, 9 east from Hawes and 4 south-east from Askrigg; it is in the Richmond division of the Riding, wapentake and petty sessional division of Hang West, county court district of Leyburn, rural deanery of West Catterick, archdeaconry of Richmond and diocese of Ripon. Electric lighting is supplied by a private company, from power derived from the old water mill. The church of St. Andrew is an ancient building of stone in the Early English and later styles, consisting of chancel with aisles, nave, aisles, south porch and an embattled western tower with pinnacles containing a clock, presented by J. C. Winn esq. in 1904, and 6 bells, cast in 1829: the upper stage and pinnacles were added to the tower at the restoration of the church: the elaborately carved and decorated rood screen, now affixed to the south wall of the chancel, was brought from Jervaulx Abbey, and the finely carved ends of the reading desk are also the work of the monks of that house: the reredos of Caen stone, adorned with a representation of “The Last supper,” after Leonardo da Vinci, was given in the year 1887 by the daughters of the late H. T. Robinson, of Edgley and The Cliff, Leyburn: there is a brass eagle lectern and elegant brass coronae, and several of the windows are stained, including one to the Rev. Fenwick William stow M.A. vicar 1873—1905: there is also a tablet to the Rev. Clement Thomas Hales M.A. founder in 1877 of the Aysgarth Preparatory school, near Jervaulx (d. 1900): the church was restored, and to a considerable extent rebuilt in 1866 at a cost of about £6,000, and affords 620 sittings. The register dates from the year 1707. The living is a discharged vicarage, net yearly value £180, including 38 acres of glebe and residence, in the gift of Trinity College, Cambridge, and held since 1913 by the Rev. William Kiteley Wyley M.A. of that college. The monks of Jervaulx Abbey became impropriators of the tithes of Aysgarth in 1423; they were never restored to the parish, but in Queen Mary’s reign were made over to Trinity College, Cambridge, which thus became patron of the benefice. The Wesleyan Methodist chapel here was erected in 1901. A fair for sheep and cattle is held on October 30th. The river Ure is crossed near the church by a bridge built in 1539, consisting of a single arch, with a span of seventy-one feet; near to it is Aysgarth Force, a waterfall descending from three successive ledges of rock; the principal fall is about a quarter of a mile below the bridge. A new foot bridge was erected in 1906 at Harber-Wath by the Rural District Council, in place of the old stepping stones. In the same year a water supply was provided at a cost of 600, the spring being presented by Mr. John Chapman, of Thornton Rust. The Literary Institute, containing reading and billiard rooms, with a large room above for public meetings, was opened in September, 1907; it was erected on the site of the old reading room at a cost of 600. Palmer Flatt, within 100 yards of the church, and a quarter of a mile from the Force, affords a most extensive view of the delightful scenery of the district, with Bolton Castle in the distance. William Robinson Burrill-Robinson esq. who is lord of the manor, William Bell esq. and James Clarkson Winn esq. J.P. of West Burton, are the principal landowners. The soil is very good; subsoil, limestone. The land is in pasture. The parish of Aysgarth is very extensive, containing the twelve townships of Aysgarth, High and Low Abbotside, Askrigg, Bainbridge, Bishopdale, Burton-cum-Walden, Carperby-cum-Thoresby, Newbiggin, Thoralby, Thornton Rust and Hawes; it covers an area of 79,561 acres, a great part of which consists of high moorland.
