The road past Kirby Moor Farm
Image: © Gordon Hatton Taken: 19 Sep 2018
This long and mostly straight road runs west from Kirkby Malzeard across a pastoral landscape that owes much to parliamentary enclosures, which started in this area after 1789. It is an area of straight sided fields bordered by hedges and a few walls and linked by several straight roads. This is mostly stock rearing country with plenty of dairy cattle supplying milk to the Wensleydale Creamery branch in Kirkby Malzeard.
