Dist:0.8km<br/>Moles live in loose, easily diggable soil throughout Britain, from sea level to about 3000ft, but there are no moles in Ireland. They do not colonise poor mountain soil or acid, sandy soil because these contain few earthworms. Moles belong to the order of mammals called insectivores, and are related to hedgehogs. Molehills spoil lawns and sports grounds and reduce the value of pasture. They may also damage blades of cutting machines. In addition, moles rob the soil of earthworms. Farmers and gardeners are therefore their chief enemies. Other enemies include owls, foxes, dogs and cats. The mole's name is possibly a shortened form of 'mouldiwarp', a names still used in northern England, which is derived from Old English 'molde', meaning earth and 'werpen', meaning to throw.

Dist:0.8km<br/>These are extensive slopes, steepening a little higher up, with few named features. There is a mix of rough grasses and rushes, with a few low gorse bushes.

Dist:1.0km<br/>The whole area seaward of the high ground between Black Combe and Whitfell has a particularly quiet and remote air, including the little villages of Bootle, Corney and Waberthwaite. This lane gives provides good views near the transition between the open fells and the pastoral land towards the coast.
