Here the Pennine Cycleway http://www.pennine-cycleway.co.uk/ (National Cycle Network route 68) emerges from a lane to run on a cycle track (behind the crash barrier) specially constructed alongside the busy A68. The house on the hillside opposite is Shepherd's Cottage, so called as it is built around the original shepherd's cottage which belonged to the farm on the other side of the road.
