Soppitt 2) Minutes The Chairman was authorised to sign the minutes of the Parish Council meeting held on November 17th as a true record of that meeting. 3) Declaration of any interests members may have in any item on the agenda: None 4) Presentation on Housing Needs in Allerdale. The officer was unable to attend. 5) The Chairman adjourned the meeting to allow parishioners an opportunity to ask questions and raise matters of interest. a) The re-instatement of the ground around the telegraph pole at the Oaks has still to be completed. The Clerk said that he had been in contact and that he had been assured that the work would be done. 6) Maintenance and Matters of Report a) Drainage on the green: A written report was received from John Thompson. He was monitoring the water coming from the tank under the pound. There had been heavy rain over the last few months so it was difficult to assess the success of the new pipe. There was standing water under the trees and the middle of the green was very damp. More soil to raise the level might help. JT b) Seating area at the top of the hill: The transfer has been completed. The seat and the wall would be combined and Joe Marrs would revise his estimate. It was hoped the work would be completed by the end of the financial year.

Cumbria Classified Roads
Cumbria Classified (A,B & C) Roads - Published January 2021 • The list has been prepared using the available information from records compiled by the County Council and is correct to the best of our knowledge. It does not, however, constitute a definitive statement as to the status of any particular highway. • This is not a comprehensive list of the entire highway network in Cumbria although the majority of streets are included for information purposes. • The extent of the highway maintainable at public expense is not available on the list and can only be determined through the search process. • The List of Streets is a live record and is constantly being amended and updated. We update and republish it every 3 months. • Like many rural authorities, where some highways have no name at all, we usually record our information using a road numbering reference system. Street descriptors will be added to the list during the updating process along with any other missing information. • The list does not contain Recorded Public Rights of Way as shown on Cumbria County Council’s 1976 Definitive Map, nor does it contain streets that are privately maintained. • The list is property of Cumbria County Council and is only available to the public for viewing purposes and must not be copied or distributed.

Drams Mount up Setmurthy, Cumbria, United Kingdom
Drams mount up Setmurthy, Cumbria, United Kingdom The Lakes Distillery I am uncertain why I visited The Lakes Distillery, but I am glad that I did. It is one of those places that has Bassenthwaite Lake and near a presence. I should add that I am no drinker, perhaps a cider from time to time. Whisky is alien to me. the distillery (Mike Andrew) At least it was until my tour of the distillery. Somewhere near the northern tip of Britain’s Lake District, the country’s largest national park, and also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a man called Paul Currie had a vision. He had made whisky in Scotland, on its scenic Isle of Arran, so why not do the same in England? In 2014, close to charming Bassenthwaite Lake, and even closer to the River Derwent, he bought a group of rundown farmhouses. Two years later, and £5 million poorer, he had built The Lakes Distillery. The distillery now produces 400,000 bottles of whisky each year, as well as vodka and gin. There are tours, a bistro, a shop, lots of smiling staff, and somehow it is surviving a pandemic. Social distancing at The Lakes Distillery is now an artform. The trouble with whisky is that you can believe anything of it. It is not just a drink distilled from fermented grain such as barley, corn, rye and wheat, but it comes with a history. Distillation as a process was practised by the Babylonians in 2000BC, followed by the Greeks in the first century AD, and the Arabs eight centuries later.

It has several small clusters of population around Dubwath, the Ruddings, Wythop Mill, Beckhouse, Routenbeck, Stanger and Shatton, as well as the larger ribbon of homes along the route of the old A66 through the Embleton Valley.

Yews in Cumbria Graham Wilkinson 1996/7
Yews in Cumbria Graham Wilkinson 1996/7 Borrowdale Yews. (GR: 235125 sheet 89) 29/10/1997 A. Female. 22' 4" at 3', 23' 7" at base, 21' 6" at 4'. A splendid, huge, gnarled and obviously ancient D tree. Hollow from base to crown, branching N 200' properly from 10-12 feet, the larger branch also hollow. A lower branch on s side is also hollowing. stile B. Female. 14' 10" at 3' and base, 16' 4" at 4'. An old tree with marked hollowing. Branching at 7', A 15' C beck with s branch grounding. 45' C. Female. 12' 11" at 3', 14' 3" at base, 12' at 4'. R. Derwent An impressive, gnarled old tree, the east trunk B having fallen away, it remains, hollow and dead. The measure then, does not do justice to the tree, the dead trunk being at least of equal girth to the living one. A measure taken when intact would have been similar to that of tree A. (Which would still be the most impressive of the three.) Hollowing in the remaining trunk but to a lesser extent than its companion trees. D. Female. 10' 9" at base. A gnarled, mature tree, branching from the base, one branch hanging over the river. No hollowing. Notes: Wordsworth mentioned the Borrowdale Yews in a poem: "Those fraternal four of Borrowdale, Joined in one solemn and capacious grove; Huge trunks! and each particular trunk a growth of intertwisted fibres serpentine Up-coiling and inveterately convolved... To lie, and listen to the mountain flood Murmuring from Glaramara's inmost caves." There is some confusion as to which trees he was refering to.
