Some years ago the National Park completed a project “Every Barn Tells A Story”. In these parts a field barn was always referred to as a “Cow ‘Us”. There were many stories collected about a way of farming now long since gone. Our walk in the picturesque area of Upper Swaledale covered by this project will allow us to look at these barns in the landscape and share some of these stories, whilst enjoying a day out in a lovely part of the Dale.
