Now someone may be able to work out the activity that used to take place here. It does NOT involve livestock

Quarrying (assuming this isn't already covered by mining)?
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
No again. Think the nearest quarry is Elterwater. A pleasant 45 minute walk away

Some good guesses. A clue is that it is sports related

I presume we can rule out the Loughrigg Fell Race as that's still a current event (assuming it is even the correct location).
Loughrigg Fell is the location. It is not a current event.
As an aside I noticed that next Sunday is the Fred Whitton Challenge. The people that complete that are amazing.

According to the internet it was run on the 10th April this year. I presume it'll be run again next year too unless they've cancelled it? That's what I meant by 'current'.
Wrong sport

Once I'd stopped looking at spires in Copenhagen it was possible to get there quite quickly. Perhaps I should have taken your hint.

Supposedly the smallest harbour in Britain
A different angle about a mile from the above
Your clues were good enough for my lowly Google-fu, thank you
Tantallon castle and the Guegan.
'Against stupidity, the gods themselves struggle in vain' - Schiller.
Certainement Tantallon Castle and the harbour is at nearby Seacliff beach, though I admit that I'm unfamiliar with the term "Guegan": my own Google-fu only comes up with a French crooner?
Bloody autocorrect! Ghegan!
At the western end of the beach is an outcrop of red sandstone called the Ghegan, which means ‘churchman’s haven’ (an interesting name in itself); and if you clamber up there at low tide, you can look down into the UK’s smallest harbour.
In 1890, the local landowner, Andrew Laidlay, used a steam engine and compressed air to slice a rectangular bite out of this lump of rock. Even today, this would be a remarkable achievement. The harbour is only 40 feet long, and the entrance is barely 10 feet across, with a sharp corner to navigate as you come in. You certainly couldn’t get a yacht in here!

Mate, don't. That house is seriously kaputt.

Someone who lies about the little things will lie about the big things too.
It just needs a light, sympathetic restoration.
