Congratulations to the Watermill, Ings for being voted Pub of the Year 2009 and to Tweedies Bar, Grasmere for gaining the runner-up place. Both awards, voted for by Branch Members, are very well deserved. As summer????? approaches there are a good number of Beer Festivals (page 35) so lets hope the weather treats them all kindly. The Branch AGM was well attended, (report page 7) and most officers were return unopposed. We should give our thanks to all concerned for their past efforts. Without such volunteers we would have no beer festival; no social trips, no one to help support & promote our wonderful local real ale outlets. There is much to do and we could do with a few more active volunteers to help out, so do contact us if you can spare some time to help maintain CAMRA’s aims in Westmorland. Enjoy reading this Spring Edition. If you have any particular views, some moans. groans or interesting real ale stories please do send them in for publication. (contact details below).

  • This Parish Occupies an Extensive Tract in the North-Eastern Corner Of
    DUFTON PARISH. 183 ) • Area, according to Ordnance Survey, 16,848 acres; area under assessment, 4,266 acres. Rateable value, £4,542; population, 414. • This parish occupies an extensive tract in the north-eastern corner of the county, stretching from the confines of Durham west­ ward a distance of about eight miles, and from north to south about five miles. It is bounded on the north by Milbourn Forest; on the west by Long Marton ; on the south by Bongate parish ; and on the east by the river Tees, which here expands into a fine broad sheet of water called The Wheel. From this lake the water is precipitated down a steep incline ; and from its resemblance to the discharge of a liquid from some huge vessel, the fall has been named Caldron Snout. Numerous offshoots from the Pennine Range and other detached mountain masses cover the parish, giving it a decidedly Alpine -character. Among these hills are reared great numbers of a superior breed of black-faced mountain sheep. Though wanting in those picturesque and romantic effects which form such attractive features in much of the mountain scenery of the lake land, there are several pleasing patches of landscape and other intere10ting spots in this dis­ trict well worthy of notice. Of late years the locality has been much frequented by tourists on their way to the lakes from the counties of Durham and Yorkshire. The route generally taken is by way of High Force to Caldron Snout, then up Maize at the base of Mickle Fell, and across Hycup (High Cup) plain (where perchance the traveller may experience the effects of the remarkable Helm wind) to Hycup Gill, one of the grandest sights in the Pennines.

As a product of the particular landscape found at Cross Fell, the Helm is a true local wind, and a phenomenon that has come to assume great cultural as well as environmental significance in the region and beyond. In this paper we draw on material from county histories, newspaper archives, and documents relating to investigations of the Helm Wind that were conducted by the Royal Meteorological Society between 1884 and 1889, and by British climatologist Gordon Manley (1908e1980), between 1937 and 1939, to document attempts to observe, measure, understand and explain this local wind over a period of 200 years. We show how different ways of knowing the Helm relate to contemporary practices of meteorology, highlighting the shifts that took place in terms of what constituted credible meteorological observation.
