On a Tuesday walk, Ian Macmillan said the HRP was one of the best long distance routes he had walked, compliment indeed from such a seasoned walker. A September Gritstone Meet across the HRP was decided upon by JA, AD, IH and SM as a change from the Alps. Further research revealed that the first section through the Basque Country could be very rainy, very misty and very humid. Not to mention no actual sign posting on the ground and the need to carry camping kit due to a lack of refuges! Anyone less mad would be put off. But not us. Weather checks in June had continuous rain as the constant theme so Ponchos were purchased too. Due to such inviting conditions JA and IH decided to let the advanced ‘reconnoitre party’ of AD and SM complete the first section and report back! So we flew from Manchester to Bilbao, co-incidentally bumping into Ian M ‘en route’ to Geneva and an Argentiere walking trip .....there is no stopping his new knees now! Standing on the beach at Hendaye at 5:30 pm, the Mediterranean Coast seemed a long way off at 800 Km, but from past long distance GR experiences, the pleasure is in the journey not the destination. Soon the busy streets of Hendaye were left behind and we were walking through lush green fields, huge pink hydrangeas of a size never encountered Pelaton at Biriatou in the UK, and a general impression of gentle Lake District walking, the difference being the humid heat which was to be our constant companion over 6 MEET REPORTS this 10 day walk. Biriatou was the first authentic Basque village we walked to and the game of Pelaton rather like Real Tennis was being played in the cooler evening heat. The court had high racked seating and the whole village seemed to have turned out to watch the game, the men dressed in crisp white shirts , hitting the ball with their hands at great speed. The HRP is a walk of many changing landscapes and the next few days certainly had its fair share of Cols and Passes over 500m and one top or Puig La Rhume 900m ( those of Mallorcan GR221 know the routine ! ) This was climbed only to find 'Blackpool' at the summit as a funicular railway runs to the top from the other side! Hordes of fast food eating tourists rubbernecked in lightweight footwear! We headed East and found the first border stone Number 25 ....a beautifully carved stone pillar. We encountered these border stones every time the French Spanish border was met and wondered at the actual number across the whole Pyrenean route …. Future trips will have to provide the answer. As we walked East it was a surprise to find very dense Beech forests with thick carpets of leaves. This route is not walked often, and over the 10 days we only met three other HPR walkers. One was a young Canadian on his first trip to Europe. He had a 60 litre rucksack, no maps, compass or GPS and was relying totally on the small maps in the Cicerone guide book. We met him a couple of times ...lost! Our second encounter was an Essex man, despite the sweltering heat he wore top to toe Gortex and gloves! The final person was a Frenchman suffering with blisters, he had a different French HRP route, as we discovered it is a route only defined by the guide book you are using! DAY 4 Saturday 20th July Les Aldudes to Roncevalles 7 MEET REPORTS While walking across the tops we noticed the consistent low lying cloud over France, while the Spain always had drier sunnier skies. There was also a marked difference between the villages, the French ones being very run down with many closed shops. While in Spain we stayed in Arizkun an authentic busy Spanish village, Pelaton was again being played in the evening and the Fonda Exterberria where we stayed served delicious Basque food, along with a bath...

    Supplementary Information

    Heritage Team 4th Floor 100 Parliament Street London SW1A 2BQ T: 020 7211 2018 [email protected] www.gov.uk/dcms 11 November 2016 Dear Ms Bourdin, Thank you for your letter of 17 October requesting further information regarding the nomination of the English Lake District for World Heritage inscription. You have asked for further details concerning proposals for development in the English Lake District and we feel that it would be helpful to preface our response with some explanation of the planning functions and powers of the Lake District National Park Authority, which is the planning authority for the whole of the candidate English Lake District World Heritage site. The English Lake District is an outstanding cultural landscape that has evolved over a long period of time and needs to continue evolving to sustain its future. We have a vibrant community of some 42,000 residents and an economy that is sustained by the key activities of upland hill farming and tourism. These activities inevitably need to develop in order to sustain the local economy and along with other requirements of the Lake District community, they generate planning applications which are determined by the Lake District National Park Authority. UK National Parks have the highest level of planning protection in the UK and the framework for our decision-making is outlined below. BACKGROUND TO THE PLANNING FUNCTION OF UK NATIONAL PARKS UK National Parks were established under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, and amended by the Environment Act 1995, to: conserve and enhance the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage (of the National Parks); and promote opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities (of the National Parks) by the public.

    Notes on the Geology of the English Lake District

    449 NOTES ON THE GEOLOGY OF THE ENGLISH LAKE DISTRICT. By]. E. MARR, M.A., F.R.S. (Rlad July 6tlr, I,OO.) A.-INTRODUCTION. HE Council of your Association has done me the honour of T inviting me to act as Director of an excursion to Lakeland in the course of the summer. In these circumstances, as I have been engaged in studying the geology of the district for many years, and have arrived at certain conclusions which have not hitherto been published, I may be pardoned if I incorporate among notes which may serve to give some idea of the general structure of the district, a summary of such conclusions; especially as, in my opinion, a knowledge of them is requisite to a right understanding of the actual structure. For several seasons I have had the pleasure of working in Cumbria with my colleague, Mr. Alfred Harker. Many of the facts and conclusions recorded in this paper are the result of this joint work, and my colleague shares with me the credit for any records which may be of value. I shall endeavour in the paper to point out clearly such portions as must be regarded as the joint work of Mr. Harker and myself. I have obtained his permission to give this brief preliminary outline of the results of our work, and should any errors be found therein I ask that I alone may be considered responsible for them. It is well-known that the heart of Lakeland is composed of Lower Palseozoic rocks, and that around these is a girdle of later deposits of Carboniferous, Permian, and Triassic ages.

Snelling, Ph.D., Answers in Genesis This paper was originally published in the Proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on Creationism, pp. 389–405 (2008) and is reproduced here with the permission of the Creation Science Fellowship of Pittsburgh (www.csfpittsburgh. org) and the Institute for Creation Research, Dallas. Abstract The Shap Granite in the Lake District of northern England intruded the surrounding host rocks as a magma that released hydrothermal fl uids as it crystallized and cooled. These hot fl uids in turn produced an atypically wide contact metamorphic and metasomatic aureole around the intrusion. There is no evidence at the boundary for tectonic emplacement of a primordial cold granite body. This study documents an abundance of Po radiohalos in the Shap Granite. These Po radiohalos had to have been produced in the granite after the hydrothermal fl uids released in the granite had assisted in the formation of the granite’s distinctive orthoclase feldspar megacrysts, and after the crystallized granite had subsequently cooled below the 150 °C annealing temperature of radiohalos. The abundance of Po radiohalos is consistent with the hydrothermal fl uid transport model for Po radiohalo formation and with catastrophically rapid granite formation. These features imply that the Shap Granite formed in 6–10 days and its Po radiohalos within hours to days once the granite cooled below 150 °C.
