  6. Silent Sunday

    The end of an evening run, crossing the Lowther near Keld in Cumbria.

  7. 🌱 Picture this: a sunny afternoon in Roundthwaite, where the scent of freshly turned soil mingles with blooming flowers.

    Homeowners are reimagining their outdoor havens, crafting spaces perfect for family gatherings or quiet retreats.

    Local experts understand the nuances of our Cumbrian landscape, providing insights that make each project unique.

  8. @howisyourdog
    The Pencil Museum in Keswick is small and not cheap to get in, plus the car park is a separate charge.

    But, it's comprehensive in it's history of the development of graphite into modern pencil manufacturing.
    There's a lot of displays of.... pencils, and pencil sharpeners and pencil boxes and did I mention pencils!
    There a good film and display of ww2 secret pencil development (yes, really!).
    Excellent, inexpensive café, and a shop selling..... pencils (and other art supplies).

    Despite the above snarky comments, we really enjoyed our visit, and would recommend a visit, once.

  9. I'm hearing the siren call of the M6 motorway. 🥴😱😳

    Actually She Who Must Be Listened To has asked if we might look in at the Pencil Museum in Keswick. Er..... Yes ... But it means going north before we go south, but who am I to deny a girl a chance to look at pencils?

  15. Incredible news for northern cavers and history nerds. DNA has revealed Northern Britain’s oldest human remains—found in a Cumbrian cave—belong to a 3-year-old girl from 11,000 years ago. Pierced jewelry suggests it was a sacred burial site. What do you think? 👇

  21. There's a lot of posters up around here for The National Emergency Briefing
    It's this : nebriefing.org/
    Which to my shame I had never heard of.

    However I think they need to rethink their publicity because my first, and enduring, reaction was that it looked and sounded like a Far Right group declaration of an 'emergency' related to immigration or us woke lefties.

  22. I think I could take to Grange over Sands. On the basis of a single day's visit it seems like a chilled friendly town.
    There's perhaps a bit too much traffic in the centre but the rest of the place seems to make up for that.
    I'm really warming to this part of Cumbria - away from the Lakes. It may be because my mother came from Maryport and the local accent reminds me a little of her and my grandmother (not that I have particularly fond memories of them).

    This is from a shop window display (that I couldn't justify the expense of buying - apologies if it's copyrighted - let me know and I'll remove it)

  27. Apart from getting drenched in a Cumbrian downpour we've watched the astonishing sight of the tide coming in over Morecambe Bay from the promenade at Grange Over Sands.
    Fast and seriously dangerous!

  32. We've been to some curious corners today - and all of them a delight.
    Here's Askam Pier near Barrow in Furness.
    It's a pier made of iron slag from the iron mines that used to be in the area. Now it's a picturesque area rich in wildlife.
    On the other side of the pier is huge pristine, empty beach

  33. May for me means bluebells.

    I'm lucky to know of a few areas I can hike around to capture beautiful bluebell displays, but Barkbooth Lot keeps calling me back.

    I mean, look at it.
