Telephone box, Warthermarske

In 1935, the Post Office commissioned a new kiosk from Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to celebrate the Jubilee of King George V. The K6 Jubilee Kiosk, as it is known, was similar to the K2 box, being made of cast iron and painted red but was 25% lighter in weight. By the end of the 1930s there were 20,000 K6 telephone boxes in use all over the UK.

Hen pheasant, Warrener Wood

Among the most savoury of game birds, pheasants provide sport by flying strongly and directly over guns. When otherwise disturbed, they tend to run away rather than fly. Rearing and protecting them, organising shoots has become a major rural industry. Pheasants, first recorded in England in 1059, are now widespread throughout Britain and Ireland. One theory is that they were introduced by the Romans from Asia. The common pheasant derives from the Chinese ring-necked, black-necked and Mongolian breeds, and accordingly varies in plumage. This has produced two forms - those with a white neck-ring and those without. Pheasants are ground dwelling birds, vulnerable to foxes, stoats, weasels and other predators. Due to the efforts of gamekeepers, who also supply winter feeding, pheasants survive in larger numbers than would be possible if they were left to fend for themselves. The pheasant shooting season starts on October 1st, but in practice very few pheasants are shot before the end of October and indeed the size and quality can be poor during that month. The glut of birds tends to start about two weeks into November.

Hutts Gill

Hutts Gill appears to be the name for both valley and beck. The valley is deep and steep sided, whilst the beck is tiny. The topography here suggests that this is a glacial meltwater channel, one of many on the eastern fringe of the Pennines.

This should be the line of the public footpath through the woodland on Nutwith Common, but the walked route is often the driest rather than as shown on the map.
