Ambleside Pierhead Sunset The sun setting over Windermere from the Pierhead at Ambleside Saturday 8-9-12. Half hour earlier something promising was on the cards but just didn't happen This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |
Where there's a will there's a way! Amazing what will try to grow on a bit of dry stone wall. None of these differing plants were anywhere near ground level. All living their lives on the stone and whatever they can find within the cracks, which on a lot of walls are just filled with smaller stones.

Wateredge Inn Ambleside Holiday makers enjoying a drink in the beer garden of the very aptly named Wateredge Inn. A few years ago the whole of the beer garden was under 3-4 feet of flood water.

This one on the way down to Ambleside from THAT bridge High Sweden Bridge again, with no apology as it is such a beautiful spot This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D 2 people have added this picture to their favourites |
Fairfield Horseshoe Slightly different view of the approach to the Fairfield Horseshoe. Taken from the track above High Sweden Bridge. The tree in the middle is the one right next to the bridge so you can guess quite a sharp climb in a relatively short distance.

Blackberries Another sign that summer is drawing to close. A Bramble bush in varying states of ripeness. This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |
Beer Garden Golden Rule The beer garden of the Golden Rule does extend further than this, but it was very busy this particular teatime so the ideal viewpoint was not available.

High Sweden Bridge 4 You cannot tire of this place. Nearly fell in the beck getting this one. Precariously perched on a couple of wet rocks is not the safest way to get a picture, but worth it in the end I think.
