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!

Tump Terrett Castle, Monmouthshire (By gasbag43)

Tump Terrett Castle, also known as Trellech Castle, is a medieval motte-and bailey site in the village of Trellech, south Wales.

The castle consists of a large, steep sided earthen mound with a flat summit about 14 metres across, surrounded by traces of a defensive ditch—best preserved on the northern side.

First recorded before 1231, it likely served as an administrative centre within the Norman lordship of Usk and stood beside a thriving planned town established by the de Clare family. By the late 13th century, Trellech had grown into one of the largest towns in Wales, larger even than Chepstow, though it later declined.

Archaeological surveys indicate structural remains in the former bailey area, Today, the site survives as a scheduled monument and an important example of early Norman fortification.

Just a short flight away are Harold's Stones -a striking trio of Bronze Age standing stones forming a 12 metre alignment, each one leaning at a different angle—likely due to subsidence or centuries of disturbance rather than intentional design.

The tallest stands over 4 metres high, with the others measuring roughly 3.5 and 3 metres. Their original purpose is unknown, though they may once have been part of a larger ritual landscape. The stones were significant enough to influence the village’s name—Trellech, often interpreted as “village of the three stones.

For those interested in ancient historic churches, The Church of St Nicholas is the local parish church with its origins in the 14th century. The historical and architectural evidence suggests that it was constructed largely in a single building period c.1300. It’s a Grade 1 listed building and nice to view from the air

Cawdor Quarry, Derbyshire Dales (By stevesb)

Excellent FPV location but access is super limited so best suited to those that are agile as there is no actual access to the site without a bit of climbing, so a crashed drone is an adventure in its self. Parking is at the marker with a 200m easy walk to the main gate. flight is possible from there, but by going into the field to the left of the main gate and following the fence you can get a bit closer by the wall.
