An aptly named house

Image: © Robert Graham Taken: 4 Jul 2022

This is High House, on Rockwood Hill Road, Greenside village. It is indeed a high house, near the top of the steep hill on the western outskirts of the village. This part of the village is mostly early 20th century terraces, or more recent houses, but this one looks older. There were a few houses, presumably farms, along this road in the 19th century, and this looks as if it is one of those.
