Road on the boundary The view east along the road from Tan Hill into Arkengarthdale. To the left of the road at this point is the boundary with County Durham, although pre 1974 this was all Yorkshire North Riding. Somewhere in the next few hundred metres the road crosses back into the Yorkshire Dales National park, although this must be one of the few roads entering the park which doesn't carry a sign. Ahead is Dale Head Common with Cleasby Hill to the right. Little visited areas with few paths - particularly dry ones.

Estate road rising towards Leading Stead Leading Stead is an ill-defined upland location named on OS maps as part of Arkengarthdale Moor - another of them! The estate road climbs only a short way up the slope which is on the south side of Arkengarthdale.

Chimney on moorland near Annaside Beck The chimney has the appearance of a currick when viewed from the estate road near to Annaside Beck both of which are to the left, out of view in the image. It must surely have been part of a small building yet there's very little evidence of one remaining: presumably the stone has been removed for use elsewhere.
The valley below the moorland on which the chimney stands is Arkengarthdale.
