The plantation is an area of trees astride Stanley Beck, north of the village at Stanley Crook. The track is also the route of a public footpath but the whole area of woodland is access land anyway. The wheels are presumably from vehicles used in timber extraction which is, or has been, taking place - there's a stack of cut logs nearby and a number of aged-looking machines, several of which are secured in a small but well-defended compound.
