Beamsley Beacon or Howber Hill is 1282ft high. It is not quite the highest point of the surrounding moorland but was clearly high enough to have a warning beacon built there in the Napoleonic wars. Its history goes back far beyond that: a cairn is thought to mark a Bronze Age burial site. A line of 18th-century boundary stones leading over the moor from the beacon marks the division between Beamsley and Langbar parishes.
