Looking down to Rookby Scarth Not the best view of the farm buildings from this vantage point on Fell Lane, but the panorama beyond is well worth a photograph with the scarp slope of the Northern Pennines running away in the distance. The more isolate peaks along the edge of the fells stand out well, including flat topped Roman Fell [part cloud shadowed], Murton Pike to the left and pointed Dufton Pike furthest left.

River Belah The River Belah is seen flowing beneath Belah Bridge which once carried the A685 between Brough and Kirkby Stephen. Realignment of the road now has it following a more direct line at this location with it crossing the river by a new bridge behind the camera position.
