N YorkshireBedale

Bedale, a busy little market town, there has been a market here since it was granted a Market Charter by Henry III in 1251. The market is still held here on Tuesdays.

Quite a lot of shops plus the added bonus of free parking at present.

The town was prosperous in the 1700's and most buildings date from this period onwards, buildings of note include Bedale Hall, a Georgian house improved in the late 1700's. At the back of Amen House, built around 1770, is an unusual Ice House, built underground to preserve food, although not open to the public.
