B Walk from Grassington 2015

Walk Leader:Jennifer Mathias
Distance: 8 Miles app
Total ascent: 1300 ft


On a clear day we should be able to see miles.  We leave Grassington from Town Head and head across the fields to Bare House (Barras) in a northerly direction. Then we turn northwest until we meet the Dales Way.  At Scot Gate lane a left turn brings us steeply down into Coniston. Climbing steadily under a scar we go around Dib Scar, a limestone gorge, and a short steep  climb brings us to Lea Green. This is a vast area of 'common grazing' land and noted for its archaeological remains.  Soon Grassington will be in sight.
