Whaw, North Yorkshire Weather
About Whaw, North Yorkshire
Whaw remains a quiet cluster of stone dwellings keeping watch over the high, windswept reaches of the northern Pennines. It lies 9.0 miles south-south-west of Barnard Castle (from Barnard Castle: bearing 210°T, OS grid NY 982 044), and is situated north-west of Langthwaite village. The land here belongs to the expansive Yorkshire Dales National Park, where the horizon pulls the eye toward the vast, heather-dusted ridges of the moors. Sunlight frequently catches the quick, silver pulse of Whaw Gill as it descends through the terrain just a short distance from the houses. The earth beneath these dwellings is defined by the Arkengarthdale, Gunnerside And Reeth Moors Sssi, a landscape where the silence of the upland grasses is broken only by the sharp cry of a curlew. History lingers in the rugged stone boundaries, marking a life shaped by the demands of mountain sheep farming and the older, leaner traditions of the hills. Whaw endures as a place where the air tastes of rain and crushed peat, indifferent to the hurried pace of the lowlands far below.
