Cumbria: A County Guide

The seventh in Cv's series of Barnaby's Relocation Guides explores the county of Cumbria. Taking a side road from Lancaster the journey begins at Slaidburn in the Lancashire Forest, progressing into Cumbria via Kendal, Windermere, and Keswick; then towards the coast from Maryport and Whitehaven to Barrow-In-Furness and Ulverston, visiting Cleator Moor. The beautiful environment of tarns and fells opens many varied experiences for the traveller. The guide includes information and histories contributed by local specialists..Hill climbs and fell walks are undertaken, recording the rugged and spectacular landscape. Moving north of Penrith and Carlisle the guide documents the extensive and sparsely populated area of the Kershope Forest, in what was Westmoreland, up to the Scottish border. The guide is fully illustrated with colour photographs and route maps.
