Then it’s onto the Scafell Hotel in Borrowdale via one of the best viewpoint summits in the Lake District. After that comes an intimate tour of Watendlath and the Armboth Fells.

  • Why Did the Lake District Need Another Man-Made Lake? the Short Answer Is the Industrial Revolution
    Viewpoint Fancy a brew? Time: 15 mins Region: North West England Landscape: Rural Location: Eastern shore of Thirlmere, Cumbria, CA 12 4TW Grid reference: NY 32172 14921 Getting there: Approximately 2.2 miles south of the ‘St John’s in the Vale’ turn-off, stop at the lay-by on the west side of the A591 between Grasmere and Keswick near a castle-shaped building. Keep an eye out for: The castle like red brick building by the water’s edge was built to filter the lake water before it enters the aqueduct. Looking at this body of water between Keswick to the north and Grasmere to the south, you might not realise that unlike most of the other natural lakes that give the Lake District its name, Thirlmere is artificial. This lake is in fact a reservoir – a purpose built space to store water. Why did the Lake District need another man-made lake? The short answer is the Industrial Revolution. In the late nineteenth century, the city of Manchester was booming. Increasing volumes of water were needed to power its mills and factories and to supply the growing population of city workers with a clean supply of water. The existing water source (Longdendale in Derbyshire) would soon be exhausted so another supply was needed. Originally Ullswater was earmarked, but the hard rock surrounding Ullswater on all sides would have meant pumping or boring through miles of rock. So why Thirlmere? The Thirlmere valley was chosen for the new reservoir as it is long, has a relatively flat bottom and is flanked by some of the highest peaks in England including Helvellyn and Dunmill Raise.

  • Bob Graham Detailed Notes
    Bob Graham Detailed Notes These notes are intended to provide a short summary of the best line to take in terms of time and effort. The notes are meant to be read in conjunction with the OS Explorer OL series of maps:- OL4, OL5, OL6 & OL7. However there is a new (as of 2005) map at 1:40,000 scale of the whole Lake District on one sheet. The map is produced by the BMC in association with Harveys maps . The map is printed on plastic so it is tear resistant and completely waterproof! Someone at the BMC must have known about the Bob Graham Round as, although the main map finishes just to the north of Skiddaw, Great Calva appears on an “insert” on the back. Grid references are in parentheses and are preceded with GR: (GR123456). Summits are not generally given grid references in these notes. Also some spellings may be different to those in common use: particularly the use of the correct “gill” as opposed to the pretentious “ghyll” introduced by Wordsworth and Southey. Bearings are also in parentheses but are preceded by MB-: ( MB-256 ). All bearings are magnetic rather than grid. The magnetic variation is taken as 3 degrees. If anyone has any corrections or additions to make to these notes then please send them in. There are several points on the round where there are alternative routes. These are indicated by the word (alternative) in the text. Hold your mouse over the word to see the variation. Section Times The table below shows expected times for each section for a number of schedules.

  • Helvellyn from Thirlmere ROUTE
    Helvellyn from Thirlmere At first glance the western side of the Helvellyn range may seem a little dull. They display slopes of a fairly uniform nature which when compared with the likes of Striding Edge and Swirral Edge on the other, eastern side, certainly lack that immediate, 'in your face' drama. Helvellyn though is a big mountain and the two sides of it are an integral part of why it is such a popular mountain. If you are into a total scrambling experience then there is nothing wrong with doing the edges. If on the other hand you want to savour the fantastic view down on to the edges from the summit, and if you just want to walk to get it rather than scramble then there is no finer way of doing it than approaching up the well-graded paths from the Thirlmere side. The three highest peaks of the main ridge can quite comfortably be done by climbing the zig- zags of the Helvellyn Gill Path to Helvellyn's summit. Then descending to Grisedale Tarn taking in Nethermost Pike and Dollywaggon Pike along the way. The best way back is down by Raise Beck, which is a little confined but soon leads down to Dunmail Raise from where you can make use of the permissive path to get back to the start.
