Hubberholme is an old village in Upper Wharfedale in the Yorkshire Dales, North Yorkshire, England, at the point where Langstrothdale meets Wharfedale. It is quite secluded and the nearest village is Buckden.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】Grassington and upper Wharfedale )〕 The village was a favourite place of writer and playwright J.B. Priestley who described it as the ''smallest, pleasantest place in the world''. The Norman church is the resting place of his ashes.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】Hubberholme Church )〕 The old inn, The George, is opposite the Church. This is notable for the lit candle that sits on the bar to indicate the pub is open and serving. The tradition dates from distinctive auctions for agricultural land or grazing that are still held in The George. The last bid to be received before the candle extinguished is the winner.〔(【引用サイトリンク】George Inn )〕〔ISBN 978-0-00-762508-6 pg 48〕 The George Pub in Hubberholme opens throughout the year (with the White Lion at Cray and the Buck Inn at Buckden the closest alternative watering holes )The church holds regular Sunday services, normally at 11.00am. After the George Inn, there is no pub on the Dales Way until the Sportsman Inn at Cowgill in Cumbria. ==Buildings== There are two architecturally notable buildings in Hubberholme, St. Michael and All Angels Church and Scar House. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hubberholme」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
