Road at the bottom says not accessible for motor vehicles. Not much to add to the walk. There were some people in the church who were lovely. I left some MiniMeadows for them.

This is an area quite high up the valley where there is a church, a cottage and a youth centre. There is also limited parking here for a classic Stuart Marshall Wainwright walk (No 4 - The St John's Vale Skyline) which takes in five Wainwrights. The photos I have added highlights the available parking at the location. It is limited and not available on Sundays due to church worshippers. In addition if the cottage is occupied you may find the car park (takes 4 cars) is half full or full in anyway. The only other parking is where my Silver Mazda is parked in the picture. Hope this helps any walkers.
