In the Yorkshire Dales National Park, UK, the ancient village of Gunnerside is brimming with English charm and history. Picture yourself strolling through its narrow lanes, surrounded by rolling hills, lush pastures and stone cottages, with the roar of the Swale River as your only soundtrack. Designated in 1954, the national park is spread across 2,178 square kilometres, and there are over 1,000 farms in this area. One of the area"s most distinctive features are its dry stone walls; built without any kind of mortar, these walls can last hundreds of years. There are thought to be over 8046 kilometres of these walls in the Dales. The village"s name comes from "Gunnar"s saetr," Old Norse for Gunnar"s hill or pasture.
