Ribble Valley near Stackhouse

One of my earliest memories is living in a house in the group of buildings largely hidden by the trees in the centre of this photograph. It is a hamlet called Stackhouse, a small collection of houses and a farm. We were recently on the limestone scars above Stackhouse and I took this photograph to remind me of what my infant self considered to be the whole world. The mountain on the horizon is Penyghent, one of Yorkshire's "Three Peaks", and the flat-top on the right is Fountains Fell, named after its one time owners, the monks of Fountains Abbey.
