Set on a hill above the River
Lune, this is arguably one of Cumbria’s most
scenic towns, lying close to magnificent peaks
such as Skiddaw, Helvellyn, Great Gable and
England's highest point, Scafell Pike. It is
particularly well known for its Devil’s Bridge and
Ruskin’s View. The bridge spans the River Lune and
was built in the 13th century - reputedly by Satan
himself. Ruskin’s View can be found atop a series
of steps near St Mary’s Church. |
