Kettlewell, walking

Another brilliant weekend walking , in one of my favourite areas, Kettlewell in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. To preserve the area I'm sure rules are necessary, but what exactly is this one?


Old lead mines are a regular feature, but not many as beautifully derelict as this one.



In spite of a dire forecast, the weather-gods smiled, warm and perfect for walking for much of the time, but threatened later. Almost within minutes of getting to the car it drizzled.

One of the many good things about travelling, even on a modest scale, is the local building style. I have a very soft spot for mossy roofs and walls, and for quirky chimneys.
