Outcrops of limestone on Highbanks [Murrah Hill] Highbanks and Murrah Hill are names which do not appear on OS maps and have been created perhaps as the hill feature qualifies as a TuMP - a hill with at least 30 metres or more prominence. There are several surface outcrops of limestone on the hill, almost in the form of pavement; this is one of the examples. There's surely a rogue boulder perched beside the outcrop, presumably an erratic.
The distant trees seen through thin mist are in the Greystoke Forest.
