Re: More evidence?

Thanks - I can reach most places in the S T valley but some are off-limits to me, due to the keepering. They'll not let me near their pigeon shed, for instance, but there are a couple of artificial hills, or extremely large cairns, up there. I have three very poor images only.

Of these Three Pikes just two are left the baby, with a drystone shooting butt on top, and the big one, which just looks like a hill. NY 632 524 (perhaps). There's a road most of the way now comprised of the medium-sized one crushed up. All SSSI (for the heather). The farmer (Angus) is fine

There's a roundhouse ruin also that I can't get to - with pictures of that it might be possible to find someone to excavate it. (Kirkhaugh and Knaredale parish was in Scotland between 1208 and 1256 so perhaps S. archaeologists). The ruin is untouched - a little mound in the middle that can only be decayed roof material - the stream beside it the 'Hut Burn'. (And so on).
