I reckon I was here just before you were on this trip but I had a bit more snow when I made this image:

It’s a very atmospheric place in spectacular surroundings which before I’d only ever looked down on from the “tops”.

By all means. I reckon I’ve got about 1,000 mining images on slides that were taken between 1979 and 1990, and once I get organised I’ll upload them. They’re mostly in the Lakes, taken with the Cumbria Amenity Trust, but there’s also a load of Wales, Scotland and Ireland.
