Great to see you back Ninthace, I hope the OP has a good time in the Howgills. A lovely range of hills with a difference, though I have not spent enough time there to say what it is.
I was fortunate enough to be offered a chance to do a walk leaders assessment from Sedbergh, not that ever wanted to become one, but the experience gave me an insight into the lack of understanding between LAF's and real walking. When I returned a very old friend reminded me that he had spent his school days at Sedbergh and an initiation tradition was to run to the top of the hill adjacent to the college barefoot in the winter term.
I had a wonderful walk into Sedbergh, decided not to go there by car but took the train to Dent station and hoofed it in. The fact that I erred from the righteous way to maximise my route from Dent, probably was the start of the demerits in my assessment, needless to say, my failure to pass out as walk leader was a mutually agreeable result and respect on both sides for our different approaches to walking.
