5. Baysdale Abbey and Ingleby
Greenhow Moor *
Presumably the remains of Baysdale Abbey have been incorporated into the current farm buildings and dwellings? 5b. Rock 'Bowls'
A depression carved into a rock where prehistoric man ground the grain-corn/wheat? This one is found on the north-west moorland above Baysdale (Battersby Moor, OS grid 609068?), near where the road from Kildale turns down sharp left, and a about 100m on the right on the Cleveland Way footpath. 5c. A Cross, Boundary Stone and Burton Howe
On the right is the 'Jenny Bradley' cross on an ancient trackway that joins the Rudland Rigg Road. The cross has a broken shaft in its medieval base. By its side stands a tall boundary stone marking the beginning of the Ingleby Estate.
