"The word dale, like dell, is derived from the Old English word dæl. It has cognates in the Nordic/Germanic words for valley (dal, tal), and occurs in valley names across Yorkshire and Northern England.[4] Usage here may have been reinforced by Nordic languages during the time of the Danelaw.[5]. Most of the dales are named after their river or stream (e.g., Arkengarthdale, formed by Arkle Beck)."

"What: A favourite of our Editor, this quintessential Yorkshire tea room is a must-visit for visitors to York.

Queues are inevitable, but anyone who wants to sample an English tradition that has all but vanished ought to persevere."
