- The Dales Pony is a native of the upper dales of the eastern slopes of the Pennine range, from the High Peak in Derbyshire to the Cheviot Hills near the Scottish Border, where a lead mining industry flourished from Roman times until the mid-nineteenth century. The favoured breeding grounds have always been the upper dales of the rivers Tyne, Wear, Allen, Tees and Swale.
- So it was that the black Galloways of the mixed herds eventually superseded the Scotch Galloway, and became the Dales Pony. ...
- In turn the Dales ponies became renowned for their great strength, iron constitution, endurance, and the ability to get over rough country fast. ...
- The Dales Pony was a comfortable riding animal, strong enough for draught or work, and able to thrive on the bleak uplands of the dales. ... Thus, when the railways appeared, and the pack trains declined, the Dales Pony found a niche on the farms of the dales. ...
- This stallion was also the foundation sire of most of the worlds finest trotting breeds, and at least one line back to him can be found in the pedigrees of most registered Dales Ponies alive today. ... Stylish trotters became the rage, and as dalesmen enjoyed trotting races but found it uneconomical to keep an extra pony entirely for this purpose, they used the best of the Norfolk and Yorkshire blood to add an extra sparkle to the fast Dales trot. This resulted in the energetic and active action of the good Dales Ponies, without spoiling their abilities as farm workers and riding ponies. ...
- At this time many fine Clydesdale stallions were travelling the districts, and using these on Dales mares to breed vanners gave the farmer a good return, but was a threat to the pure breed. The Dales Pony Improvement Society was formed in 1916, and the Dales Pony Stud book opened, which ensured the preservation of the ponies. ...
- The War Office also awarded premiums and in 1923 and 1924, the Army took over 200 Dales Ponies. ... Dales Ponies served overseas in both world wars.
- Few ever came back, and after the war the fate of the Dales breed lay in the hands of a few dedicated breeders who refused to believe the day of the heavy pony was over. In 1964, the Dales Pony Society was re-organised, and "improvement" was dropped from the title. ...

- It would be another 30+ years before the Settle/Carlisle Railway was built, with the line opening to goods traffic in 1875 and to passengers the following year The Yorkshire Dales area around Settle, the Three Peaks & Malhamdale represents one of the most rewarding areas of the country in which to live & work. Traditional Dales farming has shaped the whole environment of the Dales, the walls stretching over the fells, barns, hay meadows and use of rough fell grazing are all a result of farming through many generations. The kinds of rock seen most frequently in the Dales were formed between 280 and 350 million years ago, as sediments beneath a sea. ... Settle, The Three Peaks and Malham has some of the most magnificent scenery and environment in the UK, managed and protected so well by the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Established in 1954, The Yorkshire Dales National Park is one of the largest and arguably the finest National Park in the country. ... The Limestone Country & Three Peaks of the Yorkshire Dales National Park offer some of the best upland walking in the British Isles, while Malham Cove, Goredale and the Ribble Valley offer breathtaking scenery without the exertion of walking the higher fells. Settle is the Gateway to the South Western area of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, at the foot of the Three Peaks & the head of the Ribble Valley. ... Settle is an idyllic location in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales countryside. Convenient for local car-parks and Settle Rail Station (direct trains from Leeds and Carlisle), the Victoria Centre is the perfect venue for meetings and conferences The Folly & Museum of North Craven Life is a striking and impressive 17th century house close to the centre of Settle in the heart of Yorkshire's Craven Dales. ...
