Dist:0.2km<br/>This path runs along the hillside from Pickwood Scar to North Dean Road, and was important enough to be paved with setts and flags, although here not wide enough for laden pack-horses.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Fords are shown here on the six-inch map of 1854, and the bridge itself looks fairly new, although the approach walls are probably older.

Dist:0.3km<br/>This is at the end of Pickwood Lane, which then continues as Dye House Lane up to Norland Moor.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The cart track only goes as far as a field entrance round the corner, and then there is a narrow path, paved with slippery setts and walled. Plenty of water around, but I didn't see a pond.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Looking NE from Dye House Lane towards Pickwood Scar and the viaduct.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This tree was growing on a very steep slope, and has become uprooted and fallen across the stream.

Dist:0.5km<br/>Here the path is high above the stream on the south side.

Dist:0.5km<br/>The OS map shows the right-of-way on the south side of the stream all the way up, but the actual path crosses the stream a couple of times.

Dist:0.5km<br/>Following the footpath westwards through North Dean Wood we come to Maple Dean Clough, with a little stream with many tiny waterfalls interspersed with pools.
