On the line of a not very obvious bridleway which hugs the wall side here. Hill Side is the name given to this area on the edge of the moor, where there was once a scattering of cottages, mostly inhabited by lead miners and their families. The view across Arkengarthdale is towards the CB Yard where some buildings associated with the long gone lead industry have been converted into cottages. Beyond this can be seen the remains of the double flue that ascended the hillside from the two smelt mills that once stood here.
