Looking south from Whitbarrow The very southern end of Whitbarrow forms a prow of limestone looming abruptly over the flat pastures and wetlands (Bellart and Foulshaw Mosses, recently colonised by nesting ospreys) bordering the Kent estuary. Immediately below is the farm of Low Fell End. Across the estuary is Arnside Knott (right), with Warton Crag further left and the Bowland moors rising beyond. There is a considerable crag below known to rock climbers as <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2475255">SD4584 : Millside Scar, Whitbarrow</a>

Immortalised in a flash they forever seek the fox... Hanging on the wall in the Derby Arms at Witherslack we have this picture depicting the Peel tradition; fell boots, fox hounds and a red coat.It was years since I visited this public house and this was the picture I came to see. Here we have "Chappie", an iconic hunt leader who was known the length and breadth of the Lake District for his prowess and unique mastery of the hounds and fox hunting. I followed this hunt in 1974 and 1977 and felt privileged to do so. Things have moved on and in a packed Derby Arms it felt strange to be part of an historic photograph amidst a throng of locals, the majority of whom would not even notice the picture or have a clue that such occasions represented the essence of Lakeland life.

Beck Head rising A charming stream rising which gives the scatter of cottages at Beck Head its name. It was explored in 1994 by the Cave Diving Group 'at right end of cliff low passage leads to 0.6m high and 1m wide submerged bedding. Upstream is a squeeze at 90m and a partial choke at 130m' ('Northern Caves 3', Dalesman Pub Co Ltd, 1994). The water probably drains from Whitbarrow, the big limestone hill above to the north. One possible feeder may be <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4620789">SD4487 : Wakebarrow Pot entrance, Whitbarrow</a> which, if connected, would yield a cave system of around 125m in depth.

The bedding plane slab below White Scar Heading up the tilted slab exposed by quarrying of the scree slope that once formed the slope below the limestone scar. It might be a skateboarders heaven?
