NY2015 : Sheepfold on Buttermere Fell
taken 6 years ago, 3 km from Buttermere, Cumbria, England
Sheepfold on Buttermere Fell
A circular stone-wall sheepfold at the upper left of the rough pasture on the slopes of Littledale Edge can just be made out below the rock outcrops. The higher ground to the right is Hindscarth Edge in
NY2115.
The river in the foreground is Gatesgarthdale Beck, in the viewpoint square
NY2014. Note the typical fell flora: short growing bracken, rough grass and darker green upright rushes. The water in the Beck is incredibly clear.
