Buildings at Arkleside
Arkleside is a tiny settlement in Coverdale just south of Horsehouse and off the main valley road. These buildings are surely part of Arkleside Farm with the most distant one being the farmhouse.

Arkleside
A Coverdale hamlet consisting of a scattering of cottages and farms. The place must have been here for centuries as it was recorded as 'Arkelsit' in 1240, whilst the origin of the name is reckoned to be from old Norse -Arkil+saetr [Arkil's seter, or summer pasture]

Old lime kiln by Arkleside Bridge
The lime kiln now appears to be a useful place to store refuse bins when awaiting collection by Richmondshire Council. An information board, which is part visible to the left, suggests that there are around 800 such kilns in the Yorkshire Dales, but I think this is a rather conservative figure.

This way to Arkleside
The access road for the hamlet of Arkleside, which can be seen turning to the left to cross the Cover. On the right is what appears to be an old milk stand, now part covered in moss and vegetation [there was once a creamery further down the dale], and behind that is the side of the old lime kiln, also well covered in moss. Beyond Arkleside the tarmac ends and there is a rough track over the fell to Lodge and Scar House Reservoir in Nidderdale. This has always been a county road, but may now have been downgraded to a 'BOAT' [byway open to all traffic], and as far as I know it can still be used by responsible users in 4WD vehicles and scramble bikes.
