Malham, North Yorkshire.

Teresa has been busy on Google. And thought here on Cove Road, Malham near Skipton and see the next now. (SJ)

I'm sure all these houses, barns and walls are still there, if only one can position Google's StreetView pegman in the correct place...

Pegman well placed thanks to Teresa Whyte's great work, showing matching stone window surrounds and chimneys. (SJ)

Malham in Malhamdale, North Yorkshire.

Malham town bridge.

Slightly confusing geography to this riding sequence: after riding south by the beck on Cove Road, the horseman is now heading west towards Cove Road from Pennine Way. SJ

Paul Sparrow identifies the location as Malham in Yorkshire.

There seems to have been a sympathetic addition to the house overlooking the green. SJ

As the camera moves to the left, Paul Sparrow points out the Malham's Lister Arms public house coming into view.

Replacing Pegman's google view from Oct. '11. The FIT attractions of Malham have been amplified by Malham Cove which appears in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part one" as well as "Wuthering Heights" (1992). SJ

The bridge.

Replacing another google shot, showing that trees in summer would have obscured the pub which was doing a roaring trade over the Easter weekend. SJ

The pan continues left. Bigley's shop, run by Reggie Beckwith in the film.

Replacing GSV Pegman's Oct. '11 shot. The shop is still open for business. SJ

Janet's Foss waterfall.

It's quite a steep walk from Gordale Lane to the fall so I believe the approach was from a field at the top, giving this overview. Janet's Foss waterfall is also seen in "Dark Water." SJ
