Roadside barn at Park Head This barn is built in to the west and south bounding walls of a large field on the north side of the Arkengarthdale road. The roadside, the land south of the road, and that west of the barn are all boggy open fell with much soft rush, but the enclosed land seen in the photograph provides higher quality grazing.

Barn above Low Faggergill Rather larger than many of the traditional field barns, this one is also in the middle of a field, rather than built into a boundary wall.

Tiny single room reminded me of student accommodation - bathroom better than the bedroom (& approx same size). Shabby carpet & stained wall. Cost £129 for one night room only mid week - overpriced & disappointing
