Hiking

A very pleasant (much green grass) walk on Leas Head Road on Sleights Moor with Parsley Beck to your south. Far-reaching views of the hills, and you have got to love those solitary hills in the moors...

Hiking

Scenic route across Sleights Moor, connecting Sleights village with the upland ridge near Leas Head Farm. It was historically used by farmers, drovers, and quarrymen, providing access to grazing land and stone quarries on the moor. The track forms part of the network of estate and toll roads built in the 18th–19th centuries, when landowners improved communications across the moors.
