Stopping at the roadside and looking at this steep sided little valley, I couldn't be sure if it was natural or man-made. The old OS 6" maps provide the answer as this is named as Greenfield Hush, so is definitely the work of lead miners, who if alive today would probably be astonished at how it has blended back into the landscape.
