Turn left at the top and follow the road. At a waymarked right turn, take the track - when it bends left, go right through a gate, traversing the slope down to a ruined farm building. Turn right (then ignore Popping Lane on the right) and just before a house take a track on the left. Beyond the gate, follow the hedge on the right, go over a stile by a gate and then follow the hedge on the left. Take the road down into the village centre, go to the left of the green, past the Bay Horse (or stop!) and follow the road out. After the farm take a right through a wall gate, cross the field and emerge onto a farm track - head right briefly along it before going left through the wall back into fields. Just after a gazebo and a shed right by the track, cross the last wall and then swing left down the field, joining a paved section, towards the left edge of a stand of trees....

Hugh Hudson added Kirbro two, a new walk from Kirkby Stephen to Brough (Cumbria)
Walk this routeAfter Winton the route follows a derelict and difficult path to an unopenable gate at a fly-tipping area by the main road, and subsequently requries extensive walking along the verges of the A685 - the verges are rough, the road is busy and cars travel at up to 60mph. Instead use the route of "A Pennine Journey" - marked on OS maps - to the outskirts of Brough and then follow the track/road down into the village centre. I would suggest this officially but don't have the means of producing a GPX file....
