Lily Tarn Lily Tarn on Todd Crag above Ambleside to the west looking across the tarn with Loughrigg in mid distance and the Langdale fells just showing in the distance. A lovely place to be.

Dry stone wall Todd Crag Stone wall half way up the fell from Ambleside towards Todd Crag and Lily Tarn.

Stock Ghyl Falls Stock Ghyl Falls in the woods on the eastern edge of Ambleside. December 2013 and not easy to get a good clean image due to the trees and branches. Several viewing points around but all similarly tree bound. Not tried it when the trees are in full leaf. Might give it a whirl later in the year This picture appears in the following picture tour: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |

Sweden Bridge Lane 4-10-13 Normally this is a very nondescript trickle, hardly noticeable as you pass, but after 2 nights heavy rain it is a bit more interesting.

Bridge House Ambleside 3-10-13 Bridge House in Ambleside was built in the 17th century over Stock Ghyll allegedly to avoid certain taxes. Now owned by the National Trust and used as an information centre it is said that at one point in time a family with 6 children occupied its 2 rooms. Although it is more likely to have been as a summer house and apple store for Ambleside Hall This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D 1 person has added this picture to their favourites |
Dog Walkers sign A small but highly visible sign to dog walkers!!! There were 3 or 4 along the perimeter wall and hedge of this property. Shudder to think what the penalty might be if you were caught disposing over the wall??? This picture appears in the following picture tour: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |
