Walking BritainGreen Lane on Little Combe Hill
Walk Photo 214601
Caption - Green Lane is a public bridleway which traverses the northern slopes of Great Coum from a point just southwest of the high point of the Barbondale to Dentdale road at 285m asl, to a point similarly just north of the Dentdale to Kingsdale road at 465m asl. With a high point at 520m along the way, 235m seems a lot of ascent for a "traverse", but it is spread over about 8km so is in reality very gentle for a walk with such splendid views. By this point it has reached about 410m asl and is now traversing Little Combe Hill, the end of the north flank of Great Coum, and maintains the splendid view of the Howgill Fells which it has had over the last couple of kilometres. Dentdale can be seen below us to the right.
