moorland

For some distance we ran through a rough moorland country, although the road was comparatively level and straight.

On our return from Helmsley, we noticed a byway leading across the moorland with a sign-board pointing the way "to Coxwold."

Scrambling through some rough woods, he came out upon a moorland reaching towards the hills.

There was no wild stretch of moorland here, no possibility of solitude.

It does not appear that the deep gloom which subsequently came over his soul oppressed him in his moorland retreat.
