Shaws Lane, walled both sides, runs along behind the pile of film-wrapped bales towards the small patch of woodland conveying a public footpath towards Gayle. Beyond the trees, Hawes is the major community towards the top of Wensleydale, which continues westwards to the dip in the horizon. The branch valley to the right of centre is Cotterdale and to its right again, the ridge (directly behind the foreground Ash tree) is the popular ascent to Great Shunner Fell.
