Beacon Fell

Walked on 26/06/2014

Start Point: At the end of the minor road from Brown Howe (SD 281 916)

Beacon Fell (OF) from Tottle Bank

Distance: 2 miles     Total Ascent: 200 metres     Time Taken: 50 minutes     Start Time: 09:30

Weather: Grey. 15°C

It was completely different weather today to that of Monday – gone was the lovely sunshine to be replaced with general murk and dreariness. Early on it was drizzling too but that soon cleared as we headed up to Beacon Fell for a bit of fresh air.
