Dist:0.3km<br/>From here, the junction of the Kendal - Brigsteer road and the narrow lane to Helsington Church, a footpath drops down steeply into the Lyth Valley.

Dist:0.3km<br/>From this point, close to the junction of the Kendal - Brigsteer road and the lane to Helsington church, land falls away steeply to give spectacular views across the Lyth Valley, and to Morecambe Bay beyond. This day had dawned foggy, but by the time this picture was taken in late morning the fog had cleared from the higher ground but was lingering in the valley. The trees poking through the fog have a rather surreal appearance.

Dist:0.5km<br/>Looking towards Brigsteer on a very bleak Christmas day with visibility down to a few hundred yards. This narrow lane, across National Trust land, gives access to the isolated Helsington Church from the Kendal - Brigsteer road.

Dist:0.5km<br/>Passed on the footpath down to Brigsteer. It looks like Silurian rock, possibly from the region immediately across the Lyth Valley, and is sitting on younger Carboniferous limestone. Inevitably, the local sheep use it as a scratching post hence the worn area around it.
