Reading the depressing news that a bird of prey had been shot in Rosedale earlier this week reminded me to head down that way. No precise location was given in the report so a toss of the dice saw me in West Gill, North Dale, a deep unfrequented gash in Rosedale Moor. A cracking day with blue skies and the remains of early morning mists slowly dissipating from the valleys. Rosedale is a lovely valley full of local history but for me now tainted along with Snilesworth and Old Byland.
