  • Mountain Ringlet Survey Squares 2010
    MOUNTAIN RINGLET SURVEY SQUARES 2014 – NOTES FOR SURVEYORS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: The following relates only to dedicated Mountain Ringlet searches. For casual records please use our website “Sightings” page where possible. Click on sightings report on: www.cumbria-butterflies.org.uk/sightings/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- We’d welcome surveys in any of the squares listed below, but are particularly interested in those marked * and +, ie where there have been recent positive sightings well away from known colonies or discovery of possible new colonies. The areas to be surveyed fall into 3 groups, in colour below, but also suffixed (1), (2) or (3) for those with black & white printers etc. 1. Grid squares that have previous positive sightings (shown in red) (1) 2. Grid squares adjacent to the above (shown in blue) (2) 3. Grid squares that are previously unrecorded but may have potential to hold Mountain Ringlet populations (shown in green) (3) The objective of these surveys is to try to determine the geographical spread of some known colonies, but also to survey areas that have suitable geology and which may hold previously unrecorded Mountain Ringlet populations. All the 1-km grid squares listed below lie in the 100-km square: NY AREA 1 - LANGDALE 2608 Martcrag Moor / Stake Pass (2) 2607 (north-east corner only) Part of Martcrag Moor (2) 2806 (northern edge) Raven Crag (1) 2807 Harrison Stickle (1) 2710 (eastern half only)

  • Newlands Valley Walk
    Newlands Valley Walk You can start this walk from virtually anywhere in the Newlands valley; I started from a couple of our Lake District cottages at Birkrigg on the Newlands Pass. Walk down the road in the direction of Keswick, you will soon come to a tight bend at Rigg Beck where the ‘Old Purple House’ used to stand. There is now a Grand Designs style house on the site but the purple colour remains on the roof garden and the front door. Carry on along the pass till you come across a gate on the right hand side and a finger post indicating a footpath beyond the gate. The path leads down into the valley fields and across a minor road. A track climbs up the other side of the valley and emerges at Skelgill. Walk through the farmyard and turn immediately back on yourself to join the path that runs alongside Catbells, towards the old mines at Yewthwaite. After about half a mile, the path descends into Little Town where you can enjoy a well earned cup of tea at the farm tea room. Now there are two options from Little Town. For a longer walk, go back up onto the track and carry on down the valley. This will take you to the old mines at Goldscope where you can peer into the open shafts on the side of Hindscarth. Alternatively you can walk along the road towards Chapel Bridge and stroll down the lane to the pretty little church. The church serves tea and cake on weekends and during the summer.

  • Draft Core Strategy
    South Lakeland Local Development Framework Draft Core Strategy JULY 2009 Lawrence Conway, Corporate Director (Community), South Lakeland District Council www.southlakeland.gov.uk/ldf Alternative formats of this document are available by calling 01539 733333 ext.7102 FOREWORD South Lakeland’s superb natural setting shapes the district’s image and plays a major role in its development, making it a very attractive location for residents and visitors alike. However, while the district can offer a quality of life that is second to none, it does experience problems common to many rural areas. There is a need to deliver more balanced communities and reduce inequality, including reducing dependency on high-level services and jobs in towns outside the district, increasing provision of affordable housing and developing and maintaining high-quality modern sustainable transport networks. We must also meet challenging targets laid down by central government, most notably for house building. The challenge is to secure a sustainable level and pattern of development that creates balanced communities and meets local needs whilst protecting the environment that makes the district special. The Core Strategy document sets out the development strategy for South Lakeland outside the National Park areas up to 2025. It is a long-term plan. It draws together strategies of the council and other organisations whose activities have implications for the development and use of land. It puts the aspirations of the Sustainable Community Strategy into effect – seeking to create a sustainable district that is the best possible place to live, work and visit. We are inviting representations from everybody with an interest in the future of our district.

  • Jennings Ale 2Alt
    jennings 4 day ambleside ale trail Day 3 - langdale hotel, elterwater - wordsworth hotel, grasmere This is the peak bagging day of the trip. After leaving the Langdale Hotel the route heads out along the old tracks down Langdale to the hotel at the foot of Stickle Gill. From here a fairly stiff climb gives access to the dramatic crag ringed corrie occupied by Stickle Tarn. Unlikely as it might seem standing amongst all the towering crags there is a sneaky route to the surrounding summits from the tarn. It leads in zig-zags to the dip between Harrison Stickle and Pavey Ark from where both peaks can easily be gained. The obvious diagonal line that cuts across the crags of Pavey Ark is Jack’s Rake which is a popular scramble. The rest of the crag provides top quality rock climbs. Having summited these two a big loop takes in Thunacar Knott and Sergeant Man, and then heads down, via Blea Rigg and Easedale Tarn, to the pastoral beauty of Grasmere and the welcome sight of the Wordsworth Hotel where a lovely, refreshing pint of Cumberland Ale awaits you! Before setting off please make sure you plot the suggested route on OS maps and pack a compass. They are essential for a safe, enjoyable day in the hills! Grade: Time/effort 3, Navigation 3, Technicality 3 stunning unrestricted views to the south out over Langdale and Start: Langdale Hotel, Elterwater GR NY326051 towards the giants of the Coniston Fells. The next of the ‘Pikes’ Finish: Wordsworth Hotel, Grasmere GR NY337074 is Thunacar Knott.

  • The Fairfield Horseshoe, Wansfell and Orrest Head a Weekend Walking Adventure for London-Based Hikers
    The Fairfield Horseshoe, Wansfell and Orrest Head A weekend walking adventure for London-based hikers 1 of 24 www.londonhiker.com Introduction A classic Lake District circular ridge walk starting from the town of Ambleside, the Fairfield Horseshoe takes in several Wainwright fells and will certainly blow the cobwebs away as you follow the 'horseshoe' round. This is one of the Lake District's most famous day walks, starting from Ambleside in the heart of the Lakes, and it offers gorgeous views of Lake Windermere, and many fells around. On Day 2, walk to Windermere via the spectacular viewpoints Wansfell Pike and Orrest Head, which inspired Wainwright to move to the Lake district. This weekend is based in one location so you will not have to carry your luggage on your hike, apart from on Day 2 when you will walk to Windermere. Summary You'll travel up to Ambleside in the evening, potentially after work, or if you prefer, travelling in the afternoon. On Day 1 you will walk the Fairfield Horseshoe, a classic ridge walk. On Day 2 you will climb up Wansfell Pike and then walk to Orrest Head at Windermere, where you can catch the train back home and be back in your own bed in the evening. You could extend the weekend to three days, by staying an extra night in Ambleside and spending some time exploring the local area on Day 2, then walking to Windermere on Day 3 instead. Some suggestions are provided for extending the weekend by an extra day. Highlights • The achievement of having competed the famous Horseshoe walk and eight of Wainwright's fells to boot (not sure who Wainwright is? Find out more here).
