What to expect
The building that now houses our ticket office is one of the oldest canal related buildings in the area, dating to 1774 and is grade II listed. It was originally a warehouse for goods being transported on the canal, hence the large cranes outside- one facing the canal, the other facing our cobbled car park, formerly stables for horses towing the craft. Somewhere near the site of the wharf, although the exact location is now lost, was Winterwell Hall, a medieval manor whose remains were lost during the building of the canal basin.
Pass By: Snaygill Boats of Skipton, Skipton Road Bradley, Skipton BD20 9HA, UK
The boat passes a winding hole in the part of Skipton known as Snaygill. Directly opposite the winding hole can be found the Craven Nursing Home. This is built on the site of Snaygill House, and was initially built as a public house, the Copper Beeches. Snaygill was formerly a separate town to Skipton. It was listed in the Domesday Book as being owned by William the Conqueror, formerly by the Earl Edwin. The land was shown to be six carucates in size and production- one Carucate is the land 8 oxen can plough in a single season, roughly 120 acres.

A Christmas gift bought for us by our son's girlfriend. From start to finish the experience was excellent. The booking process easy. The staff in the office very helpful and location just perfect. The staff on board were excellent, especially Glynis. She couldn't do enough for us. Serving drinks and Afternoon Tea. Taking photos and generally a real asset to the company. We enjoyed it that much, we have booked to return on the evening cruise with Fish and Chips supper.Very friendly and welcoming. Sandwiches and cakes very fresh and enjoyable. Personally I would prefer a few more savoury items instead of the sweet cakes but all in all we enjoyed it.
