The North York Moors Historic Enviroment Record describes this ruin as a “post medieval sheep fold identified from historic mapping with slight structural remains,” but the dressed stones to me point to a more substantial building1NYM HER No: 9698.
I am on Warren Moor looking down on the secluded Leven Vale. Now, the “field” beyond that fence isn’t Open Access Land, as a pompous gamekeeper so eagerly emphasised. Oh no, he made sure to enlighten me, his patronising tone dripping with unfulfilled expectations, hoping against hope that I had foolishly ventured across that forbidden terrain.
