Tatham Fells Primary School may not be the loveliest building in the
Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, but it has an
unbeatable view of the Lake District, including England's highest mountain,
Scafell Pike
|
Tatham Fells old school, and the Church of the Good Shepherd
|
Only the ground between the camera and the Great Stone of Fourstones
is in Tatham!
A linear walk over the skyline summits makes a wonderful expedition.

Whitray, Botton Head and Dicksons farms - the three remotest in Tatham

and continues north through Lowgill village.

Tower near the summit of White Hill,
highest point in Tatham Fells. Wolfhole Crag and Ward's Stone on the skyline.
The tower (and two similar towers nearby) mark the course of the

its 2½-mile journey through Tatham Fells.
