Conistone Pie Conistone Skipton added to Iconic Landscapes and Ancient Sites in Yorkshire and the Humber by D0c.Col on 30/11/2022

Parking can be an issue but most use the east side of Conistone Bridge. It's an easy short walk for the able young an old alike with a tiny scramble to keep the kids amused. You'll love the narrow limestone gorge, named Gurling Trough, just above Conistone village, which is an enclosed passage that is no wider than a footpath in some sections; You'll also enjoy the amazing views on and around the Limestone feature called Conistone Pie.

The Walk begins from the Conistone Bridge and heads up eastwards past cottages, through a gate and along a path towards the gorge which is the direct access to the Conistone Dib. There is a short scramble at the head of the Dib that leads onto the Conistone Turf Road towards the Capplestone Gate trig point. Once past the trig point you eventually turn back SSE onto the Dales Way (not Dale way as the video states!) and towards Conistone Pie, which is a prominent Limestone Outcrop that just has to be climbed. The pathway continues on the other side of the wall that runs past the eastern side of Conistone Pie and on towards Conistone Village via Scot Gate Lane.

The Walk was about 11.8K and took 4hrs 45mins, but we did stop a few times to take the drone footage as well as soaking up the amazing views over the moors and the Wharfedale Valley: Of course it also includes the time to consume the obligatory cheese and onion sardies and crisps at the half way point.

We finished the walk with a short video of Conistone Village with the River Wharfe winding its way through the valley. The walk is easy and ascent gradual but it can get a bit muddy in places after periods of bad weather. Nevertheless an awesome morning, or afternoon, can be had breathing in fresh air and getting away from the crowds!

Blackhills Waterfall - Eas a' Bhradain (By AlbionDrones)

A wet and blustery final day on Skye, afforded us a brief window in the weather to make a short flight at the changeable Blackhills Waterfall...

The falls are just off the main road - take care crossing the road if you wish to talk to them - and almost opposite a parking space - which gets busy!

Not huge, but good if it has been raining...

Two Barroes, Exmoor (By Howard)

Two Barrows is a site on the West Somerset / North Devon border that contains a number of Bronze Age burial mounds. Only one barrow is prominent today, though the official record assigns four barrows to the location. The site itself is part of a larger 'Principal Archaeological Landscape: Setta Barrow, Five Barrows and Two Barrows complex' (no 8 in the Exmoor list of these PALs).

Sinfin Moor Park, Derby (By D0c.Col)

The Park has a wide open space with plenty of parking. The whole area consists of 34 hectares including a playing field with 6 football pitches and 2 cricket pitches, a BMX track and a play area with a range of equipment for children of all ages. The nature conservation area has more than a hundred species of wildflowers and its ponds, meadows, woodland and hedgerows provide habitats for a variety of birds, invertebrates, amphibians and mammals. All these are well away from the park playing area so should not have any issues flying there.

The Friends of the Park volunteers run a community café at the Pavilion, as well as other activities for the community and to help wildlife.

@JockyB organised an East Midlands Meetup there in 2024 and eberyone had a great time.
