    Hiking

    Moscar Cross is a guide stoop erected in the 18th century, at a parish boundary and packhorse track junction. It is thought a cross existed at the point during earlier periods. The name 'Moscar' is thought to derive from to 'moss' (mos) and 'carr' (kjarr) both referring to marshy areas. Moscar Cross has been claimed as the location of 'Whitcross' in Charlotte Brontë's novel Jayne Eyre
