March 2000 From Coniston along the Walna Scar road, exploring Little Arrow
Moor and part of Torver High Common. This is an area of considerable antiquity,
with many burial mounds and settlements, some circles, and a huge and mysterious
Dyke on Torver High Common. This picture is taken standing in the dyke
on Bleaberry Haws. Not always marked on OS maps, it stretches across the
valley, and over the top of Torver High Common. It doesn't enclose anything,
doesn't appear to defend anything, is of uncertain age, and is a physically
huge mystery. What was it for?
