Visions of Cumbria

 

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.


The pictures on this page were sent in to me by Colin & Joan Ainsworth. They are from a walk they did on the 2nd November 2008 to School Knott from Ashes Lanewhich is just north of the Plumgarth roundabout on the A591. It follows closely the route that we did on this WALK back in October 2007.
