Koordináták
The most prominent early observer of the weather in this area was James Losh, a lawyer from Newcastle, who kept a daily weather diary between 1803 and 1833. He kept instrumental data and also noted the first appearance of wild and garden flowers in their seasons. The Durham University Observatory also provided Manley with an important record. When Manley became curator of the observatory in 1931, he began work on standardising its long record of temperature, making historical measurements made with different instruments comparable with the measurements he was now recording on a daily basis. Directions to stop 16 Continue following the road downhill for about 2 kilometres enjoying the views of the Eden Valley and Knock Pike (if the weather is clear). Stop where the road bends 90 degrees to the right and a footpath continues straight ahead (the area is marked as Knock Quarries (disused) on the OS map).
