A car travels through the village of Askrigg heading towards Swaledale. The road passes through Askrigg Common and Oxnop Ghyll before emerging on the B6270 between Muker and Ivelet. Beyond the village it is possible to look over Wensleydale towards Addleborough, a former Roman lookout post.

Roger Nelson adds by email (2004):
This is a famous view, since it was painted several times, in different styles and at different times of the year, by the well-known Dales author and artist, Marie Hartley. Miss Hartley lived in the house on the far left with Ella Pontefract, and cooperated with her on the classic books 'Swaledale', 'Wensleydale' and 'Wharfedale', all first published (I think) in the 1930s. After Miss Pontefract's early death, Miss Hartley co-operated with Joan Ingilby on many more Dales books. Miss Ingilby died a couple of years ago, but Miss Hartley, at the time of writing, is still alive and sprightly in her nineties. I am sure Askrigg people will soon add to these brief details.

Edward Burgin adds by email (2007):
I live in the second house on the right looking down the hill.
Miss Hartley died on 10 May 2006, aged 100 and 6 months.
