Sheep at Whygill Head

Also, looking rather sheep-like, some erratic boulders of Shap granite which are often found scattered over these limestone uplands east of the Lake District.

Buttressed barn north of Little Asby

This reminded me of these structures Link just a few kilometres away. Perhaps a rogue barn builder operated in these parts?

Destroyed barn, Potts Valley

Three years ago this barn had a roof and looked to be in reasonable condition NY7110 : Track into Potts Valley Now the roof is gone and the flags and slates are being crated up for disposal. One large roof beam was lying nearby but fire (recent judging by the smell and ashes) seems to have destroyed everything else inside. Note the similarly roofless barn on the opposite bank. Just up the track is NY7009 : Potts farmstead, similarly abandoned and decaying.
