A66 near Rowtonbridge Sike This area of North Stainmore is featureless and treacherous with deep ditches and soft bog. I passed an area of bog no larger than a bathtub with at least four dead sheep in it.

Approaching the summit, A66 The A66 is a major road in northern England running from near Middlesbrough to Workington. The section between Scotch Corner and Penrith is a Trans-Pennine route between the A1 and M6, following an old Roman Road.

Fence line crossing Beldoo Hill Beldoo Hill is a minor feature along the County Durham / Cumbria boundary north of the A66. The rock marks the high point and presumably also acts as a boundary stone. According to OS mapping at 1:25 000, the fence line and the boundary don't quite coincide, here and for a distance both north and south. The territorial advantage (if there is one), goes to Cumbria! Little Fell, Mickle Fell and Bink Moss are the hills along the horizon.
