Pike O' Stickle is the site of a Stone Age axe factory. Archaeologists have found discarded axe heads strewn on the scree which descends into the valley below. A kind of prehistoric rubbish dump for axe makers. Years ago people used the scree as a quick descent route to the valley floor. It's very much frowned upon nowadays and the scree is much depleted. I wonder how Stone Age man returned to the valley without walking boots to keep dry and safe.

Heading down to the valley and the difficult choice between the Old Dungeon Ghyll or New Dungeon Ghyll pubs. My money's on the Old Dungeon Ghyll for a traditional Lakeland pub!
