Green Lane Formerly an enclosed track, now evidently little-used, to judge by the obstruction at the top of this field where three gates are tied together and have to be climbed – not easy with a horse!

Shallow valley at the foot of Big Hill So shallow that it does not show up in the contours on the OS map, but very wet all the same. If you want to keep your feet dry, wear willies, otherwise I would suggest pumps without socks in warm weather.

Approaching Sandford Beck from Big Hill The foreground and the area to the left are access land, but the fields straight ahead are not. There isn’t a stile in the wall on the left, but there is a place where stones stick out a little on both sides so that the wall can be climbed.

The valley of Sandford Beck A typical broad expanse of rushes, amongst which the beck runs. Fortunately there is a footbridge a little way upstream: <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3080942">SD7662 : Footbridge over Sandford Beck</a>.

Cobbled footbridge over Kettles Beck On the footpath between High and East Kettlesbeck. There is a standard council wooden footbridge immediately downstream - this bridge would appear to be used to allow the owners' horses to cross to and from the field beyond.
