My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership Number: 3812 First Fell Climbed
My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership number: 3812 First fell climbed: Coniston Old Man, 6 April 2003 Last fell climbed: Great End, 14 October 2019 I was a bit of a late-comer to the Lakes. My first visit was with my family when I was 15. We rented a cottage in Grange for a week at Easter. Despite my parents’ ambitious attempts to cajole my sister Cath and me up Scafell Pike and Helvellyn, the weather turned us back each time. I remember reaching Sty Head and the wind being so strong my Mum was blown over. My sister, 18 at the time, eventually just sat down in the middle of marshy ground somewhere below the Langdale Pikes and refused to walk any further. I didn’t return then until I was 28. It was my Dad’s 60th and we took a cottage in Coniston in April 2003. The Old Man of Coniston became my first summit, and I also managed to get up Helvellyn via Striding Edge with Cath and my brother-in-law Dave. Clambering along the edge and up on to the still snow-capped summit was thrilling. A love of the Lakes, and in particular reaching and walking on high ground, was finally born. Visits to the Lakes became more regular after that, but often only for a week a year as work and other commitments limited opportunities. A number of favourites established themselves: the Langdale Pikes; Lingmoor Fell; Catbells and Wansfell among them. I gradually became more ambitious in the peaks I was willing to take on. -

Folk Song in Cumbria: a Distinctive Regional
FOLK SONG IN CUMBRIA: A DISTINCTIVE REGIONAL REPERTOIRE? A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Susan Margaret Allan, MA (Lancaster), BEd (London) University of Lancaster, November 2016 ABSTRACT One of the lacunae of traditional music scholarship in England has been the lack of systematic study of folk song and its performance in discrete geographical areas. This thesis endeavours to address this gap in knowledge for one region through a study of Cumbrian folk song and its performance over the past two hundred years. Although primarily a social history of popular culture, with some elements of ethnography and a little musicology, it is also a participant-observer study from the personal perspective of one who has performed and collected Cumbrian folk songs for some forty years. The principal task has been to research and present the folk songs known to have been published or performed in Cumbria since circa 1900, designated as the Cumbrian Folk Song Corpus: a body of 515 songs from 1010 different sources, including manuscripts, print, recordings and broadcasts. The thesis begins with the history of the best-known Cumbrian folk song, ‘D’Ye Ken John Peel’ from its date of composition around 1830 through to the late twentieth century. From this narrative the main themes of the thesis are drawn out: the problem of defining ‘folk song’, given its eclectic nature; the role of the various collectors, mediators and performers of folk songs over the years, including myself; the range of different contexts in which the songs have been performed, and by whom; the vexed questions of ‘authenticity’ and ‘invented tradition’, and the extent to which this repertoire is a distinctive regional one. -
Windermere Way
WINDERMERE WAY AROUND ENGLAND’S FINEST LAKE WINDERMERE WAY - WALKING SHORT BREAK SUMMARY The Windermere Way combines a delightful series of linked walks around Lake Windermere, taking in some of the finest views of the Lake District. Starting in the pretty town of Ambleside, the Windermere Way is made up of four distinct day walks which are all linked by ferries across the Lake. So you not only get to enjoy some wonderful walking but can also sit back and relax on some beautiful ferry journeys across Lake Windermere! The Windermere Way is a twin-centre walking holiday combining 2 nights in the lively lakeside town of Ambleside with 3 nights in the bustling Bowness-on-Windermere. Each day you will do a different walk and use the Windermere Ferries to take you to or from Ambleside or Bowness. From Ambleside, you will catch your first ferry to the lovely lakeside town of Bowness, where you will begin walking. Over the next four days you will take in highlights such as the magnificent views from Wansfell Pike, the glistening Loughrigg Tarn, and some delightful lakeshore walking. Most of the time you are walking on well maintained paths and trails and this is combined with some easy sections of road walking. Sometimes you will be climbing high up into the hills and at others you will be strolling along close to the lake on nice flat paths. Tour: Windermere Way Code: WESWW The Windermere Way includes hand-picked overnight accommodation in high quality B&B’s or Type: Self-Guided Walking Holiday guesthouses in Ambleside and Bowness. -

Scottish Winters 2004-2006
SIMON RICHARDSON Scottish Winters 2004.. 2005 & 2005.. 2006 ive climbs stand out from the last two winter seasons - a technical test Fpiece in the Northern Corries, a bolt-protected climb in the Southern HigWands, a major addition to Pinnacle Buttress on Creag Meagaidh, a stylish and very fast repeat on the Shelter Stone and the first winter ascent of a long sought-after line in the far north-west. These climbs are strikingly different in style, and highlight the variety of climbing styles in the increasingly popular sport of Scottish winter climbing. Dave Macleod's winter ascent of The Hurting in Coire an t-Sneachda in February 2005 was something special. This 35m-high crack line slices through the prominent steep triangular wall on the right side of Fiacaill Buttress and was first climbed in 1991 as a summer E4 6a. The winter ascent was graded a hefty XI, 11, making it by far the most difficult winter pitch ever led in Scotland. MacLeod's lead was brilliant, and the resulting route is highly technical and very bold. In rock climbing terms think E9 or ElO. After inspecting the route on abseil, Dave almost flashed the route on his first attempt, but fell off three moves from the top. Scott Muir then top roped the climb, and pointed out to Dave that he had gone the wrong way at the top. Dave returned three days later to settle the score. It was a cold, windy day and recent heavy snow meant the cracks were verglassed. Dave abseiled down to see where Scott had gone at the top, chopped the verglas out of the crucial gear placements and then led the route. -
