About Muker

Muker sits in remote Swaledale, surrounded by dramatic fells and traditional stone walls. Reach it via the B6270 from Richmond (25 miles) or over the Pennines from the A66. The village developed around lead mining and sheep farming, with narrow mountain roads connecting to neighbouring dales. Muker's literary museum celebrates the Kearton brothers, pioneering nature photographers who worked from this unlikely Pennine village.
