Harwood Beck is seen here with very little water - pretty much at low summer levels despite it being near the end of March when rather wetter weather and minimal transpiration of soil water back to the atmosphere would be the seasonal norm. The riverside willows are just bursting their buds in the sun, although the scattering of trees right on the edge of the stream hardly coonstitutes the area of woodland that is depicted on the largest scale maps as extending up the steep left bank seen in the middle distance. Across the water, on a somewhat isolated peninsula between Harwood Beck and the River Tees, the abandoned farmhouse of Wheysike House is visible
