Dist:0.1km<br/>The farm behind this house must have produced milk in the past. Once a common site churn stands are becoming a rarity.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Viewed from Station Road, Horton in Ribblesdale, the B6479 turns sharp right here and continues up the valley to Ribblehead. The left turn is Crag Hill Road, which leads to the huge Horton Quarry. Straight ahead, the short stretch of road leads up to the railway station, which is on the famous Settle to Carlisle line.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Looking down Station Road, Horton in Ribblesdale, towards the B6479, which turns to the left in this photo. Pen-y-ghent, one of the Yorkshire Three Peaks, is prominent in the distance. See also the view looking up this hill [[429946]]. The gap/stile indicated in the wall to the left of the large opening, is the other side of [[369888]].

Dist:0.1km<br/>The cat was carefully complying with the regulations as it walked along the warm iron rail. It regularly stopped, and looked (at the long grass), and listened, although I think it had its mind on things other than trains. Nevertheless it was facing any oncoming trains, so it would have had ample time to get off the line safely. And lastly it wasn't a passenger, so the bottom sign didn't apply.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Someone is really keen to get you to use their stile. A pointless task as it is situated next to an opening large enough to allow cars to pass.

Dist:0.1km<br/>A welcome view for Yorkshire Three Peaks walkers, arriving from Ingleborough, as they approach Horton in Ribblesdale station. The path crosses the line and exits the station via a small gate on the other side of the platform, and it is then all tarmac back to the Pen-y-ghent Cafe, which is visible at the right hand end of the group of white painted buildings to the right of the photo. The single white building on the far right is the shop and post office. Pen-y-ghent, which is the usual first peak of the three peaks walk, is seen on the far side of the valley.
