Lee Houses, Cumbria Weather
About Lee Houses, Cumbria
Lee Houses clings to the high, exposed shoulders of the North Pennines, where the wind carries the sharp, clean scent of crushed heather and wet slate. It lies 4.9 miles south-south-east of Alston (from Alston: bearing 152°T, OS grid NY 754 395), and is situated south-south-east of Garrigill village. Stone walls divide the thin, acidic soil into a patchwork of stubborn fields, marking the boundary where agriculture yields to the wilder intentions of the moor. To the west, the slopes of Green Hill rise in a bruised, monochromatic swell of bracken and peat that dominates the horizon. A short distance to the north-east, the hidden drop of Ashgill Force pulls the local water down into a deep, limestone-carved throat, its constant, low-frequency roar defining the silence of the surrounding heights. Lee Houses remains a place of sparse, hard-won shelter, built from the very grit of the hills that surround it. The light here shifts with a sudden, restless intensity, casting long, lean shadows across the stone gables as the clouds race over the high ridges. Life in Lee Houses persists in the quiet tension between the enduring weight of the earth and the vast, unblinking sky above.
