An unbelievably dramatic spot both naturally and historically! Amidst the glorious hills of East Stonedale and Ivelet Moor, where a few becks meet and crash down under the stone bridge, there's an old and abandoned lead mill.
It's an amazing, unusual place where one can really appreciate how humans have interacted with – and exploited – the natural world.

A stunning location with old mine workings, a pack horse bridge, cascading waterfalls, and beautiful beck. All this surrounded by the stunning steep hillsides. I just had to stay here for a while before heading up to Rogan's Seat.
