Dale Beck and Roughton Gill

One of our favourite spots for a local dog walk but one we haven't visited that much lately. We used to bring Hattie here often. PArking at Fellside, we headed off towards the ford across Dale Beck

You'd think she had never been off the lead before!

As normal, Breeze gallops about at such a speed, the camera just caught her as she landed having leapt from the bank on the left and then carrying on round to her left ahead of us. Although this looks pretty dramatic, I can assure you she never even broke her stride!

Play time

Not another soul around. Just the sound of birds and the beck. If you only want to have a wander about, it would be hard to find a more perfect place.

Coffee stop at Roughton Gill

Heading back to the car
We only walked a little over 4.5 miles, and it's pretty much on the level but this place never fails to remind me how lucky we are to be living here.
