Friar Garth Farmhouse is a grade-II-listed farmhouse located on Finkle Street in the village of Malham, Craven, North Yorkshire, England. It was listed as an historic site by the English Heritage on 13 September 1988.〔(Images of England: Friar Garth Farmhouse ) (accessed 10 February 2009)〕 It commands wide views of the dale and sits astride the feet of Cawden hill, a reef knoll. The hill houses a spring which, when torrential rains do not cease in days, bursts through the ground and sends Finkle Street awash, waters running down into the village. These floods rarely reach Friar Garth, though they often threaten to. In recent years the farmhouse has acquired an annexe and an extension. The field is oft home to sheep and chickens with a dales pony visiting on occasion. A greenhouse inhabits a run-down yard with a pond and overgrown shrubbery. Let fly the flag, as black as pitch, And raise the standard from the ditch. Let mourners wail and mothers cry, With tears of grief in ev’ry eye. Our company walks the bloody strand, Twixt hellish sea and forsaken land. by Adam Crossley an excerpt from his epic poem of Ragnarok and the Great Wolf, famously written at this residence. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Friar Garth Farmhouse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
