Between the two, the system passes beneath Ireby Fell and Leck Fell which are in Lancashire.

"Swaledale runs broadly from west to east, from the high moors on the Cumbria–Yorkshire boundary at the watershed of Northern England to the market town of Richmond, where the dale meets the lowlands. Nine Standards Rigg, the prominent ridge with nine ancient tall cairns, rises on the watershed at the head of Swaledale. To the south and east of the ridge a number of smaller dales (Birkdale, Little Sleddale, Great Sleddale and Whitsundale) join to form the narrow valley of upper Swaledale at the small village of Keld."

It’s fairly small, but there’s lots of areas to choose to sit, including up a narrow stairwell or on the rooftop terrace to enjoy the views.
