I like the name.

Boundary stones or markers are quite common remnants of the world before accurate mapping. This one also marks the boundary between Lancashire and Yorkshire, an important distinction.

Looking south-east, Ty'n Cornel hostel is off to the left. Twelve young Welsh Blacks were grazing on hill pasture by the Afon Doethie Fawr.

I also found the '% of full time workers working 49 hours or more' map interesting. I'd take a punt and say the answer is 'hard working farmers' but I'm not an expert on that - definitely not an urban pattern though

(the 25% here relates to those in full time work, obvs)

Here's a photo from Jacobs Ladder, Peak District, taken about a decade ago.

I'm heading back tomorrow, this time to the Hope Valley to climb Win Hill.

Part of my effort to climb as many hills and mountains as possible, travelling only by public transport. Cost of living crisis has killed me a bit, but this year I've done the Malverns, the Long Mynd and the West Penwith Moors. Train strikes foiled me for the Dales too.
