I know of a few in Teesdale and Weardale that a a least a mile and some a lot more over hard ground from public roads - public roads you would only be on for the sake of being in the middle of no where. I know the Bothy association does not know about them and they are not on or too close to footpaths, bridleways, green lanes and other rights of way.

Sometimes the best thing to do it spend a lot of time covering ground, but I do like to spend a cold dark winters evening with an OS Explorer map open over the floor and have a good look in each square. You find some very interesting things.

whats a bothy

A `Bothy`...at least in Scotland, is a building often single story in a remote location, maintained is a very simple way for the use of walkers/climbers who need shelter in bad conditions,.. they are very often bare inside, but the building is well looked after
