Introduction
The photograph on this page of Stand Farm by Texas Radio and The Big Beat as part of the Geograph project.
The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

The track in the picture is (obviously) not the road to the farm. This track does not appear on any old maps going back to 1860 onwards therefore I'm unsure when it was ever in use. There are a few small spoil heaps either side of the track so perhaps it was actually a mineral railway although again this is not on any maps. The actual road to the farm is just to the south of where the picture was taken.
