Take B6479 if coming from the south which links to the A65 around Settle. Or take the B6255 off the A65 if coming from the north.

There is plenty of parking around the Station Inn at Ribblehead (although not in their private car park.) Parking can be problem on sunny days as Ribblehead is used as a base for many walkers.
Once parked, walk along the stone road to the north of the Station Inn. Follow the path up the hill rather than under the viaduct and keep walking past the signal box and house until you come to where a stream crosses the path. From here you should be able to see the bridge to the left.

There is a train roughly every 2 hours in each direction to Leeds and Carlisle. The nearest station would be Ribblehead, and this would be a good 30 to 40 minute walk. Cumbria Classic Coaches operate the 570 bus on Tuesdays between Hawes and Ribblehead in the summer only.

There is a pub in Ribblehead

The pub in Ribblehead also offers a Bed and Breakfast service.

The light for southbound trains is good for afternoon trains, but difficult for northbound trains as it never really gets round far enough to “get on the nose”, other than at the height of summer. Unfortunately the northbound shot is the better with the box, signals and Ingleborough in the background. The signals and changing of the points gives advanced warning of oncoming trains.
