The cutting on the Incline where you can see the "rock art".

Just South of Meynell Hall Farm the footpath went past an unusual crop. It looked a bit like bamboo (maybe it was).

Walking along the Cleveland Way on top of Ingleby Moor, the weather closed, - the wind was blowing and the rain was coming down. But then the weather lifted and we had this superb view looking West.

Looking out across to Carr Ridge and Greenhow Plantation.

Reused grave slab in the floor of St. Andrew's church, Ingleby Greenhow

Beneath the stone effigies is a portion of a small sepulchral slab with cross and sword moulded round the edge, and fragments of other slabs and stones found at the time of the restoration.

Stopping for lunch at the "Incline Top". Despite it being mid July, we had to wrap up and shelter from the freezing cold wind.

Carved sea creature(?) in St. Andrew's church, Ingleby Greenhow, thought to have been done by a vicar in the 19th century. It looks like a beastie from a bestiary or map.

So THIS is why the "Road Closed" sign is placed at each end of the lane that leads to the moors. A combination of 4-wheel drive vehicles, trail bikes, and bad weather has caused MASSIVE damage. Very sad to see.

After walking through a rain storm, we were blessed with a brief spell of sunshine.
