The purpose of this section is to show various pictures from Cumbria which do not normally appear on our walks pages. They may have been taken on a day out or maybe on the way to or back from one of our walks or sent in by one of our readers. Either way I hope that you will enjoy them.
One good thing about being somewhat restricted in what I can do on the fells is that it is giving me the opportunity to dwell longer in the valleys and to visit places that normally I would walk by without a second look. How many times have I walked by Rydal over the years, it must be scores of times and apart from a stop at the Old Schoolhouse Tea-room in Rydal Park that it is it. When I did the circuit of Rydal Water & Grasmere walk on the 4th March 2008 I decided to put this to right.
