						| Along the road behind the hotel is a narrow lane, signposted "Public footpath Greenhead Gill, Alcock Tarn" | 
					
					
						  | 
					
					
						| The lane rises to a gate giving access to the open fellside |

						| Looking back to Wetherlam above the Dow Bank ~ Silver How ridge | 
					
					
						  | 
					
					
						| In the height of summer some sections of the path are almost hidden amongst the tall bracken | 
					
					
						  | 
					
					
						| Helm Crag appears over the trees | 
					
					
						  | 
					
					
						| The path turns sharply right away from the trees and begins to climb more steeply across the bracken covered slopes, opening out the views |

						| Approaching the summit of Stone Arthur | 
					
					
						  | 
					
					
						|  Looking back during the climb to the summit, Alcock Tarn is just visible on a grass shelf between Butter Crag and Grey Crag | 
					
					
						  |
