Place names such as clough, fell and moss suggest they were named by Norse settlers. |
Beneath the north face is the steep valley or clough from which Clough Head gets its name. |
Woodlands Mill, which is situated in a wooded clough, was built at the peak of manufacturing activity in the area. |
In summer time, on long, warm evenings, we would engage in the building of various types of bridges over the stream that runs down the clough. |
These trees were located along the streams and clough sides, where they retained water and prevented soil erosion. |
A steep valley to the east of Threlkeld Knotts, which begins immediately below Red Screes, is the clough from which Clough Head is named. |
