From Allendale Town to Allenheads the ride is romantic being near the wild little brook called the East Allen.   There are some plantations and a small quantity of natural wood on its banks and the wild heath covering the hills which rise to a considerable height makes the scenery wild and interesting.   We were very hospitably received by Mr. W. Crawhall who seems to be a plain but sensible man.
