About Austerlands

Austerlands occupies the high, exposed shoulders of the Pennine fringe, where the light catches the gritstone walls with a sharp, silver clarity. It lies 0.9 miles north-east of Lees (from Lees: bearing 53°T, OS grid SD 964 054), and is situated south-south-west of Scouthead village. The landscape here demands a certain resilience, shaped by the steady, cooling winds that sweep down from the northern moorlands. Below the houses, Stone Breaks Hill rises as a firm, grassy sentinel, offering a vantage point over the patchwork of fields that define the immediate horizon. The air often carries the faint, damp scent of the nearby Lower Strinesdale Reservoir, a reminder of the water that once powered the heavy industry of the valleys below. Austerlands maintains a quiet composure, its modest stone terraces facing the weather with a stoic, functional grace. The incline of the terrain ensures that every street corner provides a sudden, panoramic view of the shifting Manchester skyline to the west. This is a place of hard edges and wide skies, where the history of the region is felt in the weight of the stone and the long, deep shadows of the afternoon.
