A walk on Houndkirk Moor 24

A cool morning with frequent showers, clearing to sunshine by the afternoon.

Looking northwards to Houndkirk Hill from the Houndkirk Road. In the distance are the green-clad tower blocks in the Gleadless Valley on the south-east side of Sheffield, and the wind turbines of the Penny Hill windfarm south of Rotherham.

The clear afternoon light brings out the shadow detail of the scarp edge of Houndkirk Hill, composed of Namurian age ('Millstone Grit Series') Chatsworth Grit.
