Gable end of a ruined cottage, somewhere near High Skyreholme.
In the shade of an old sycamore, a little bridge takes the footpath across Blands Beck to High Skyreholme.
The valley narrows towards Trollers Gill.
The dry stream bed in Trollers Gill.
Spoil heap of ancient mine workings, at the top end of Trollers Gill.
Nearby, the entrance to another long-abandoned mineshaft. The whole area is dotted with these relics of old industry.
Typical dales landscape: the upper Wharfe valley seen from Appletreewick Pasture.
A quiet stretch of the Wharfe, between Burnsall and Barden. In the distance, Carncliff Top, climbed earlier in the day.
Back at the Barden Bridge car park, pausing only for a locally made ice cream before driving home.
