Footpath through North Dale The photograph would suggest a pleasant rural stroll, but on this February day it was anything but. Fields oozing water with deep and slippery mud along the route of the path making progress slow and difficult. probably rather better on a fine July day. Path number 25.130/52 heading north from Rosedale Abbey.

Lane approaching Northdale Farm The buildings here, including the old stone barn to the right, may belong to Northfield Farm which is another 300m or so along the lane. Old OS maps of the mid 19th century show this as Southfield House, with nearby Northdale Farm missing, thus one would assume that the original farm was here, although traces of a farmhouse seem to have gone.

Sheep in the lane at Northdale Farm Pretending to look nonchalant, these sheep have probably escaped from a nearby pasture. The OS has been rather enthusiastic with the yellow colouring here as the rough lane is shown as a surfaced road. Tarmac ends at least 200m further back at the farm entrance.

View across North Dale North Dale is a quiet and little visited offshoot of Rosedale with just four farms along the valley. The view across the dale is towards West Northdale Farm, which looks like a row of cottages, but is likely to be a much altered 'longhouse' type of traditional building.

North Dale A junction of paths at this point. Down the track to the left is path number 25.130/41 heading towards West Northdale Farm, whilst behind the camera position an old track, which is a right of way, slants up the hillside.

Track down the hillside This track drops down from the heathery moor top into Northdale. The track is full of ruts and the ruts are mostly full of water, but anyone using the route can easily avoid wet feet. On the far side of the valley is West Northdale Farm.

Tread carefully! Part of the old track that descends the hillside above Northfield Farm. This short section between a wall to one side and a steep bank on the other has become a sort of natural ditch full of water and goo, but this can be avoided and the route is preferable to the soaking fields in the dale bottom.
