Talk:Glenridding Dodd

Latest comment: 10 years ago by Silence-is-infinite

DELETED references to naming the col between Glenridding Dodd and Sheffield Pike as "The Rake." The map does not place this name on the col, but to the south of it. The name itself, "rake," is a dialect word which usually refers to a narrow path on a hillside, as elsewhere in the district.
