As you look out from the bus shelter to Long Causeway, take a few minutes to imagine the village as it was. Although all the buildings in the village are now occupied for domestic use, many had commercial functions in the past, so as you listen try to imagine a much busier village centre. The road through the village is called Long Causeway, a major packhorse route between Halifax and Burnley, which you’ll hear more about later. The building opposite was The Shoulder of Mutton Public House, once a popular stop – off place for cattle drovers using the Long Causeway. There was a pasture for the cattle - now a row of houses on Causeway Fold - and a barn for shelter when the weather was bad. This was not the only pub in the village, an indication of how busy it was, and how many people - and animals - passed through. To your right is Blue Ball Cottage and House, previously the Friendly Inn, which in its time has also been home to a butcher’s shop, post office and café. Further along Long Causeway at the top of Davy Lane, the disused piece of land was the site of a textile mill. Powered by coal, it provided gas as a bi-product to light Blackshawhead Chapel. To the left of the bus stop is the large white building of Hamer Cottage which has had various functions - as well as cottages, it served time as a sweet shop, a butcher’s shop and a café.

  • River Brue's Historic Bridges by David Jury
    River Brue’s Historic Bridges By David Jury The River Brue’s Historic Bridges In his book "Bridges of Britain" Geoffrey Wright writes: "Most bridges are fascinating, many are beautiful, particularly those spanning rivers in naturally attractive settings. The graceful curves and rhythms of arches, the texture of stone, the cold hardness of iron, the stark simplicity of iron, form constant contrasts with the living fluidity of the water which flows beneath." I cannot add anything to that – it is exactly what I see and feel when walking the rivers of Somerset and discover such a bridge. From source to sea there are 58 bridges that span the River Brue, they range from the simple plank bridge to the enormity of the structures that carry the M5 Motorway. This article will look at the history behind some of those bridges. From the river’s source the first bridge of note is Church Bridge in South Brewham, with it’s downstream arch straddling the river between two buildings. Figure 1 - Church Bridge South Brewham The existing bridge is circa 18th century but there was a bridge recorded here in 1258. Reaching Bruton, we find Church Bridge described by John Leland in 1525 as the " Est Bridge of 3 Archys of Stone", so not dissimilar to what we have today, but in 1757 the bridge was much narrower “barely wide enough for a carriage” and was widened on the east side sometime in the early part of the 19th century. Figure 2 - Church Bridge Bruton Close by we find that wonderful medieval Bow Bridge or Packhorse Bridge constructed in the 15th century with its graceful slightly pointed chamfered arch.

Distance - About 7.5 miles /12 km taking c 3.5hours actual walking time for the whole route. Grade - Generally easy but with several short uphill sections on both on road and tracks. Some paths rough and uneven, wet in places. Access - From Keswick by the Borrowdale bus or the launch service to Ashness landing stage / Watendlath road end. By car on the B5289. Map - OS Explorer - The English Lakes - North Western - OL4 - 1: 25000 Start from the cattle grid just above the road end junction and walk steadily uphill through woodland for ten minutes. At the wall end read the plaque on the small cairn, in memory of the legendary Bob Graham. Ashness Bridge, a classic viewpoint, is now in sight. Over the bridge, continue on the road up two hill sections, passing Ashness Farm on the left. You soon reach Surprise View on the right, with a wonderful panorama across Derwentwater, Keswick and Skiddaw. The last of serious uphill!! Keep on the road through mossy mixed woods. In a few minutes bear right off the road onto a broad track leading downhill to a gate; turn right and cross the footbridge. Here turn left at the stone Indicator towards Watendlath following the riverside path. Pause at the next footbridge. In front is a small glaciated valley, the craggy sides forming the textbook U shape, with the white buildings of the hamlet in the distance.
