We've all split into little groups to do our own things.
I'm heading back along the Newlands Valley for a look at Goldscope Mine.
I met some interesting characters on my way
Now there's a contented lamb.
The back of Low Snab Farm is where I want to be.
Those two fellas were hill climbing I think,they never went to the mine but turned right along the hill path.
After a climb up the spoil heaps I get to the Adit.
I decide to do some videoing of my walk inside.I must have gone in some way as I did seventeen minutes recording.
I did intend to upload my video to You tube then blog it,but after second thoughts I'm not going to embarrass myself.
Instead I'm embedding a video by Aditnow of the Coffin Level of this mine which I didn't quite reach (A few more yards probably)
I head back to the chalet via the back road,I want to take a look at Rigg Beck.As well as being a stream it's also the name of the new building that's being built.
Originally the site of the Newlands Hotel it was already derelict after being destroyed by fire in 2008.
It's on the net here.Rigg Beck
More photogenic creatures,an interesting landrover and a dewdrop get me back to the chalet.
The next group of ramblers are already getting settled in and just about to set out for their first walk.
They're the Richmondshire Ramblers and I pass a while talking to them before they head off on their ramble.
It's not long before the Stationmaster's back to pick me up and we make good progress homeward.
It's been a very enjoyable week.
