Low Ellington A tiny hamlet comprising one large farm and a few cottages at the end of a lane off the A6108 north of Masham. Local fields that remain as pasture show signs of earlier cultivation with ridge and furrow and plough strips.  Maybe there was a larger village here once.

The Ure near Charlcot The six miles or so of the Ure between Kilgram Bridge and Masham is little visited. There are no bridges or riverside roads, whilst the footpath on the right bank appears to be used infrequently. This is a scenic stretch of the river past woods and quiet pastures.
