Yearning Law was the last and smallest peak that we walked up on days walking in the Cheviot Hills, on the England / Scotland border. A cool cloudy day, with some patches of blue sky. We started the walk near Blindburn in the Coquet valley, on a good track along the "Buckham's Walls" Burn and then up onto the Border ridge about 1km west of Lamb Hill. These hills are quiet and unfrequented and although this path forms the Border ridge path between England and Scotland, and is also part of the Pennine Way, there are few other walkers there. We had lunch in the Mountain Refuge Hut on the ridge, then went up Lamb Hill. The visitor book in the mountain refuge hut confirmed that one person had stayed there overnight whilst walking the Pennine way and was the only person there for the last 2 weeks. We then walked along the border path and climbed the fence into Scotland and headed down the slope to a col and then up onto Callaw Cairn. Here the sun was trying to break through the cloud and we had some views. Then it was back onto the the Border ridge, where my companion wanted to walk onto Beefstand Hill, 1km to the NE. Here we saw the wild goats,which I had seen a few days earlier. From here we retraced our route back along the border ridge to Lamb Hill and then dropped down the south side, over rough ground, to eventually pick up a track back to our starting point, via Yearning Law, which was a short detour from the moorland path.
