Recently I took a trip up to Newcastle and on the return I came back by my favourite through Alston and over the summit at Hartside and down into Melmerby and on to Penrith. The view from the top is spectacular, from the Lakes across the Solway Firth to Scotland. Here’s the route down from Hartside Summit. Not one of my usual posts, but I enjoy the area and the […]

It’s a project that seems to have been dawdling along for a while, a side effect of streams of project updates is that I end up feeling that things have been going on for longer than they have
