Three Stiles in a Row
This morning’s photograph tells you everything. Three stiles, one after another, in close succession. Not one. Not two. Three. As if whoever built them wanted to make absolutely sure that anyone with a dodgy knee, a pushchair, or simply the misfortune of being over seventy would get the message: this path is not for you.

A Lost Boundary Stone of Easby
Out on the moors, boundary stones are everywhere. In the Vale of Cleveland, though, they are relatively rare. I had driven past this one for nearly fifty years before noticing it properly. That only happened last year, when two men were working beside it. I assumed they were putting up a rustic farm sign and drove on.
Next time I passed, I saw it p ...

The tiny hamlet of Easby serves as a picturesque setting against the majestic backdrop of the Cleveland Hills. The large prominent house to the left of centre is Easby Hall.
Easby Manor came into the possession of Robert Campion, a prominent figure in Whitby during the early 19th century. Campion, a banker and businessman of considerable me ...

Remembrance Sunday on Easby Moor
On Remembrance Sunday, a brisk stomp picking up the memorial on Easby Moor for the solemn service by the Cleveland Mountain Rescue Team has become an unspoken tradition. A simple plaque there pays tribute to the unfortunate crew aboard a Hudson airplane, their three lives ending on a bitter February morning in 1940.
They had embarked from Thornaby airfield at an ...

Winter sunshine, with a light dusting of snow, casts a golden hue over an abandoned meander of the River Leven near Woodhouse Farm in Easby.
A meander is caused by erosion of the concave outer bank and deposition of sediment onto the convex inner bank.
This often results in a narrow neck being formed which is prone to being broken through by floodwaters to create an ox-bow lake.
Eventually, over time, t ...
