Useful bench on the east side of the hut, nice to sit and take a break. The hut was unlocked when I passed by in June 2026, so you could in theory shelter from a passing squall (but if the weather is that bad why are you on the hills and not in the pub!)

Nethergill Barn and honesty box. A little trail magic on the dales way. Hot and cold drinks and snacks for a donation - bring cash. I imagine on a bad weather day would be fab shelter. Also not much else around here. Great spot!

Cracking location, a nice looking hostel in a top spot. Nice to see them flying the flag of St. George too, and that's a Welshman saying that. This place would make a fortune too if it sold coffee and cake in this location!

A lonely and isolated hut stands in this awesome location here on Stean Moor. This is a shooting lodge. You're likely not shooting grouse, so you can sit somewhere next to it and enjoy the tremendous view of Acoras Scar (to the west). Remote, surrounded by peace and quiet and having the dramatic views in front of you. Life just does not get better.
