Wednesday 15 May
With the fatigue of a week’s fells in my legs, I gave myself some time off! I spent a lovely day in Glenridding, home to the Ullswater ‘Steamers’.
Imagine living in one of the cottages to the left – everyone tells me I’d hate it in winter…
A glorious trip aboard a grand old lady of the lake
A delightfully tranquil way to spend a couple of hours
Glenridding back to its beautiful best after the flood damage of 2015
Poignant reminder of the sacrifice made by the local community. War memorial between Patterdale and Glenridding with a personal cross for each of the fallen. RIP
A quiet spot to drink in the panorama and get on with the latest book review
A walk beside Glenridding Beck then back to base via St Patrick’s Church in Patterdale
