We're all watching you!
The path narrows to a long rocky section . . .
before reaching the wooded section . . .
but mind your head, especially on the second, lower branch
From Long Knotts looking back to Whitemore . . .
and across Parlick
The entrance to New Laund . . .
where an unusual piece of equipment . . .
welcomes the visitor
Time for a tea party
River Hodder from Burholme Bridge
Langden Brook joins the River Hodder
Dunsop Bridge
Unusual to see a cow flat on the ground . . .
but it soon pops it's head up
