Leaving Kirkby Stephen over the river Eden.
Today passes the half way mark.
|
 |
Looking back at Kirkby Stephen with Stobars Hall above
|
 |
Choice of routes today depending on season!
|
 |
The Nine Standards. From this approach perspective they look like a circle of cairns.......
|
 |
.......but in fact they form a straight line!
|
 |
This single pillar stands on Coldbergh edge separated from the Nine Standards by 2 miles of bog.
|
 |
Then the long descent into Swaledale begins
|
 |
Ravenseat farm; the home of the Owen family lies in the at the head of the dale.
|
 |
They have featured several times on TV regarding their family life in a remote dale
|
 |
They offer a welcome sign for tired legs
|
 |
There are many of these distinctive stone barns found in the dales
|
 |
Is this a house extension or 'shepherds hut' (note the wheels)?
|
 |
 |
The river Swale as it nears Keld
|
 |
 |
Some American walkers were staying for the night in these yurts at Keld.
