    Grasmere & the Central Lake District

    © Lonely Planet Publications 84 Grasmere & the Central Lake District The broad green bowl of Grasmere acts as a kind of geographical junction for the Lake District, sandwiched between the rumpled peaks of the Langdale Pikes to the west and the gentle hummocks and open dales of the eastern fells. But Grasmere is more than just a geological centre – it’s a literary one too thanks to the poetic efforts of William Wordsworth and chums, who collectively set up home in Grasmere during the late 18th century and transformed the valley into the spiritual hub of the Romantic movement. It’s not too hard to see what drew so many poets, painters and thinkers to this idyllic corner LAKE DISTRICT LAKE DISTRICT of England. Grasmere is one of the most naturally alluring of the Lakeland valleys, studded with oak woods and glittering lakes, carpeted with flower-filled meadows, and ringed by a GRASMERE & THE CENTRAL GRASMERE & THE CENTRAL stunning circlet of fells including Loughrigg, Silver Howe and the sculptured summit of Helm Crag. Wordsworth spent countless hours wandering the hills and trails around the valley, and the area is dotted with literary landmarks connected to the poet and his contemporaries, as well as boasting the nation’s foremost museum devoted to the Romantic movement. But it’s not solely a place for bookworms: Grasmere is also the gateway to the hallowed hiking valleys of Great and Little Langdale, home to some of the cut-and-dried classics of Lakeland walking as well as one of the country’s most historic hiking inns.

Indian Infancy covers the years in India from my birth in December 1941 to my return to England in 1947. Dorset Days and Dragon Days (with Jamie Bruce Lockhart) cover my life from 1947 to 1954 in Dorset and 1955 at the Dragon School. My own account of the Dragon experience is in Becoming a Dragon. Lakeland Life describes my home life in the Lake District from 1954 to 1960 and is paralleled by Sedbergh Schooldays, an account of my time at Sedbergh School in Yorkshire 1955-60. Later volumes will take the story on to Oxford University for six years and beyond. All of the volumes are principally based on contemporary documents, especially letters written by members of the family. This volume is based on several sets of letters, my mother’s to me and to my father (when she was away from him on home leave), my letters to my parents and my sister Fiona’s letters to my parents.

    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.

  • Foreword If There’S One Walk That Captures the Sheer Variety of the Lakeland Landscape, This Is It

    Foreword If There’S One Walk That Captures the Sheer Variety of the Lakeland Landscape, This Is It

    4 Foreword If there’s one walk that captures the sheer variety of the Lakeland landscape, this is it. The peace and quiet of the Blawith Fells, bustling Coniston, picturesque Tarn Hows, the challenge of Stake Pass from Langdale over to Langstrath, Borrowdale, Derwent Water, Back o’ Skiddaw and the river valley approaches to Carlisle. Who could ask for more? Me. I have to confess that I’m by nature a diverter and if you’re not pushed for time, the Cumbria Way provides the perfect backbone to an exploration of a wider Lakeland – the views from the pretend lighthouse on Hoad Hill above Ulverston; The Cathedral, a spectacular slate cavern out by Tilberthwaite; the prehistoric equivalent of the iPhone at Castlerigg stone circle above Keswick – calculator, calendar, clock and messaging service all rolled into one; the atmospheric, abandoned bobbin mill in The Howk at Caldbeck; and dozens more such side-trips. But if your time is limited, come back to see all those things another day, and in the meantime relish five or six days of relatively gentle walking. In fact, if you’re new to long distance walking, this is the perfect introduction. The only real challenges are on the long haul from Mickleden up to Stake Pass, and the high-level route over the summit of High Pike. The rest of the seventy-plus miles you can devote to inspirational thoughts – such as wanting to strangle the man who wrote the Foreword when you get caught in a downpour in Langstrath (as I did) or go up to your hocks in the bogs o’ Skiddaw (as I did).
