Harland Hill

There's a stone built farmhouse here in traditional style, but the building has been extended a long way to the right with what could be 2 or 3 extra dwellings of brick construction. All slightly odd.

Heading towards Drummer Hill Farm

The farm track is also the route of a public footpath, it runs close to Ingleby Beck which is in the trees to the left in the image.

Farm road heading towards trig point

The purpose of the road is obviously not to visit the trig point but it's heading that way. The road, also the route of a public footpath, descends to cross a stream and continues to come to a tree. The pillar can just be detected a little to the right of that tree - a tiny white feature embedded in the hedge.

Rough grazing on north side of Ingleby Greenhow Road

The road is on the far side of the hedge bounding the small field. So rough is the field that it might not be in use at all, even for grazing.
