Panope Ford The ford on Whitriggs Beck at Panope.  The track is the public bridleway from Panope to Cross Lanes at Seascale, joined almost in the ford (through the gate on the right) by a bridleway from Silver How and Blea Wath.
The beck follows the track for a few metres before leaving it to the left under a small footbridge hidden by vegetation in front of the sign.  The sign reads ‘NO SATNAV ROUTE FOR HGVS’ although the location is far from a metalled road.
