Thank you for your interest in our facilities at Ripon!

The Yorkshire Regional Development Team has taken the bold step of purchasing a piece of land on the banks of the river Ure at Ripon.

We are pleased to confirm that this purchase has now been completed and would like to thank everyone who has supported the purchase both morally and financially.

We do still have some money to raise to repay loans and carry out repairs on the land - if you would like to make a donation please click here for further details.

Recent Progress

Repairs have been carried out to one of the boundary walls.

The day to day management of the land will be managed by the Washburn Committee. Please This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it for further details including access and fees.

Next Steps

Once flood alleviation work has been completed by the EA, we will be replacing the gates.

Signage and combination locks will be added to the gates to facilitate access. Details will be provided to users in due course.
