The section from the rivers source to around Addingham is known as Upper Wharfedale and has a very different character to the rest of the river. The valleys are typically glacial U-shaped valleys running through limestone which leads to many springs, cliffs and limestone outcrops.
Wharfedale is also the name of a prominent loud speaker company from the U.K. Their homepage is http://www.wharfedale.co.uk
