Welcome to the Amerdale Hall

The Litton Birks Fell Race, organised by the Fell Runners Association, was held on Saturday, 16th November, 2024 in beautiful weather. After a year’s absence, this open race dropped its loop for a shorter ‘up and down’ course. Surely to become a permanent fixture in the fell runner’s calendar! A special thanks to all the local landowners, The Queens Arms, volunteers from the Amerdale Hall for refreshments and the Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association for watching out over the runners. Stand-out performances from Wharfedale’s tenacious Ted Mason, closely pursued by Alex Whittam, Calder Valley. Adam Perry from Helm Hill, came in third. The inspiring Kiri Wood, followed by Kirsty Hall, were the first and second women, both of Wharfedale. Notable category performances too, from Ken Robinson, Jill Gates, Iain Gibbins, Andy Holden and Harry Atkinson. See the photos on the gallery page and Instagram. Thanks to organizers for donating half the proceeds to Amerdale Hall.
