Ripping (ruin)
A few low, ruined walls of an 18th Century or earlier farmhouse are all that remain of Ripping, probably an old farm that was in use until the early 20th Century with a single building probably a barn or cottage remaining intact after the main building became derelict.
There’s not much to see but the ruin is right beside the small lane leading into Brinscall woods and passed often by walkers.
