Ilkley Moor is part of Rombalds Moor, the moorland between Ilkley and Keighley in West Yorks. England. The moor, which rises to 402 metres above sea level, is well known as the inspiration for the Yorkshire 'County Anthem ' On Ilkla Moor Baht'at (dialect for 'On Ilkley Moor without a hat').
To the north are 2 millstone grit rock-climbing areas, Rocky Valley and Ilkley Quarry. Ilkley Quarry is the site of the famous 'Cow and Calf', a large rock formation consisting of an outcrop and boulder, also known as Hangingstone Rocks. They are so named because one is large, with the smaller one sitting close to it like a cow and calf. Legend has it there was once a 'bull' but that was quarried for stone during the spa town boom that Ilkley was part of in the 19th Century.
