Ralph Cottage, Castle Carrock
The lintel above the doorway of Ralph Cottage names the house and tells that it was built in 1884. Its frontage is fairly small but it appears to have been extended to the rear.

Castle Carrock Beck, at the Waterworks
The beck has been culverted around the east side of Castle Carrock reservoir - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1433223 . It emerges behind the dam and is channelled through the water treatment works, after which it continues naturally downstream to join the River Gelt. The grassed slope of the reservoir dam is seen in the distance, with the top of the valve tower http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1433206 peeping over the top. (Photo taken on a guided tour of the works, which is not normally open to the public).
