  Main Street, the village high street, continues south as Mill Lane, towards the bank of the River Wharfe and the villages of Hartlington and Burnsall, the latter being just over 2 miles away. The road to the north runs to the small hamlet of Hole Bottom, from there continuing as a track onto Grassington Moor.
