Cowling Web is a free website dedicated to Cowling Village, it's inhabitants, history and the surrounding area known as Cowling Parish.

The site is owned and built by Mark Wilson and his wife Kathryn in June/July 2001 and was launched in August later that year. The idea for the site first came about in August 1999, when the original idea was to create a site to cover the whole of the valley from Cowling down to Kildwick. After some consideration that idea was put on hold due to the size of the prospective task. After some more thought and a little research, the original design was launched.

Over the past four years a great deal of (very enjoyable) hard work has gone into further research and development of the site. Locals and historians including Joan & Robin Tindale, Maurice Benson, David Hoyle, Dennis Harker, Malcolm & Edna Smith, Ken Edgar Jnr & Snr, Dorothy Holmes, Barry Emmott, Mark Barnes and the members of Moonrakers history group have all been invaluable in contributing to the site.

The site has become far more popular than we could ever have imagined with over 2000 vistors a month from all corners of the world. January 2005 sees the launch of a new design, new Message Board & Galleries. We hope that all our visitors will continue to contribute, explore, and enjoy the site.

If you feel we missed anything or have any ideas about how we could improve the site please feel free to get in touch.
