Hill road descending to Hope House

Hope House is a remote building on the west side of Stanhope Burn; it was deserted for some time. When reoccupied it's believed to have seen use as some sort of animal sanctuary; that's probably not so now, in 2020. The erect stone with the nameplate 'Hope House' doesn't refer to the house itself but is an estate reference to a grouse shooting area, probably along the line of the hill track partly seen at the left side of the image.
