🏞️ Chapel-le-Dale (valley)

Chapel-le-Dale is a west-facing valley in the Yorkshire Dales, England. The U-shaped valley of Chapel-le-Dale is one of the few which drain westwards towards the Irish Sea; however, the river that flows through the valley has several names, with the Environment Agency and the Ordnance Survey listing it as the River Doe. Some older texts insist the name of the watercourse through the dale is the River Greta, which runs from a point below the hamlet of Chapel-le-Dale, and onwards past Ingleton. The dale is sparsely populated with only one settlement, the hamlet of Chapel-le-Dale, which has a small chapel.
