The C15th Church tower of St. Oswald, set in a nook of the river Skirfare, rises from behind a copse of sycamore. In the village, we walk across the stone bridge, edge nervously past the village stocks and head towards the church. From the road the view of the church is percolated through a lych gate and sentry of ewe trees. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/371/911/original/img_1745.jpg) We sit beside the porch and take in the churchyard. Whilst we rest, billows of dust plume out of the porch entrance. The dust-busters are in. We chat to a volunteer that cleans the church every week. She tells us that she recently lost her husband and that he now rests between the church and the river. Her loss sits on my mind whilst I walk along the banks of the Skirfare. Skirfare comes from old norse meaning clarity of water. The churchyard brings a clarity to the line between life and death. This place is polarised, a vessel built for beginnings and endings. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/371/939/original/img_1750.jpg) Shortly before we visit St. Oswald’s, we trek through Park Scar: a rare concoction of larch and oak and moorland - it is a marginal place, a place that’s in-between. The place feels otherworldly - a realm bounded by erratics. It is from places like this that fairy tales are born. It is a place for Little Red Riding Hood, Orpheus and Eurydice, Macbeth and Heathcliffe. It isn’t one thing or the other - it isn’t a moor, not quite a wood - not light, nor shade, not good, nor evil. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/372/002/original/img_1704.jpg) Park Scar After leaving the scar I take a little of its wonder with me into the churchyard at St. Oswald’s, but it isn’t until I speak to the dust-buster that I realise why I carry the magic from the hillside. Unlike the polarity of the church at Arncliffe, Park Scar is a living continuum. The transition between life and death is hard to define. Between the fungi and the fallen tree, I can’t find where the beginning begins or the end ends. Indeed in this liminal place there is no beginning and there is no end. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/372/346/original/scar.jpg) **The Kettlewell/ Arncliffe loop** A wonderful walk over Middlesmoor Pasture to Arncliffe, then along the Littondale valley through Hawkswick and back to Kettlewell. 6.25 miles.

It's a unique landscape where the edges have been scraped along by passing glaciers in the last ice age. The walk takes you into the heart of this landscape. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/383/original/img_1640.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/333/original/img_1653.jpg) Virtual Reality through the Ordnance Survey App. ![Andy Marshall 📸 on Twitter: ](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/394/683/web/fpjvxgwxoaeimfi.jpg) ### [Andy Marshall 📸 on Twitter:](https://twitter.com/fotofacade/status/1511220859914100739?s=20&ref=digest.andymarshall.co) “One for the early birds: Lumps and bumps articulated by first light.

Arncliffe comes from the Norse meaning Eagle Cliff. The church of St. Oswald lies next to the river Skirfare. The village was the original location for the English soap, Emmerdale and has some lovely vernacular agricultural and domestic buildings ranging from the C17th to the C19th. It also has an early over-light.... ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/476/original/img_1740.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/477/original/img_1742.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/484/original/img_1767.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/500/original/img_1768.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/502/original/img_1769.jpg) The Falcon Inn is the ideal respite on the loop. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/501/original/img_1770.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/503/original/img_1772.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/504/original/img_1774.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/513/original/img_1775.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/514/original/img_1776.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/376/517/original/img_1780.jpg) \--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## The Door Light **Notice the rectangular window over the door above in Arncliffe?** It's quite an early example in the evolution of the fanlight. Over-lights were originally utilitarian in their use - to bring light into the hallway - but, during the Georgian period, became stylised and loaded with status. The earliest over-lights were actually in the door itself - see below. The styling of over- lights helps you read a building and give clues as to its age, but is also a marker in the development of human expression through architecture. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/2e/b6/2eb6d776-18dd-41f1-a2d1-b76fa2d605be/content/images/revue/items/images/015/424/849/original/img_2230.jpg) Early door light in Wickham, Hampshire.

It's surrounded by the lumps and bumps of previous ages (medieval field systems).
