Numbers 1, 2 and 3 are three houses in a terrace. Built in the late 18th century of coursed rubble stone under a stone slate roof. Numbers 1 and 2 share a porch. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1131504 Reeth is a village, some 8½ miles west of Richmond, set on a plateau above the River Swale, surrounded by hills and moors. At the junction of roads up Swaledale and Arkengarthdale, Reeth was an important service centre for the lead mines and smelt mills based in these two valleys in the 18th and 19th centuries. Now a centre for walkers and other visitors to the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
