INGLEBOROUGH National Nature Reserve was officially opened by the Prince of Wales 25 years ago, on June 7, 1993.

And to celebrate its quarter century, an exhibition is being held until the end of the month at Ingleton Community Centre.

Since being opened, there have been some great achievements at the around 1,100 hectare site, which forms part of the Yorkshire Three Peaks walk.

Friends and partners of the nature reserve have joined reserve staff and volunteers to celebrate the achievements with the exhibition highlighting some of the major scientific research projects and wildlife enhancements which the reserve has delivered over the years.

This magnificent limestone country landscape looks at its absolute best at this time of the year, with colourful hay meadows and specialist limestone pavement flowers in full bloom.

Visitors to the exhibition, which is on every day until June 30, will be able to pick up a free guide to the reserve, covering a range of flora, fauna and geological features from the summit of Ingleborough at 723 metres to the depths of the cave systems below the surface at minus 192 metres.

The Reserve is designated as access land, giving people the right to visit without charge whenever they wish.
