Farm Life in the Lakeland Dales

W.R. Mitchell
£8.99

Fifty years ago, when the author first ventured into the Lake District, as Editor of the magazine Cumbria, he was befriended by the farm folk who scratched a living against the backdrop of high fells. This book is a popular account of how such a life evolved over the centuries, from the first settlers and the colonising Norsemen whose names for places and natural features are spread densely across the Lakeland map.

Fellwalking With Wainwright

Derry Brabbs
£25.00

For this new edition of the fellwalking classic, virtually all of the photographs have been re-taken by the legendary Lakeland photographer, Derry Brabbs. The result is the transformation of an already fine book into something spectacular.
After the completion of his 'Pictorial Guides', A. Wainwright decided to write a narrative, descriptive account of his eighteen favourite walks and these are now indisputably the eighteen classic long Lake District walks. Described and discussed by a man who was both a master fellwalker and a lover of the hills with an unparalleled facility for writing about them, the result is a book of unmatched quality.
With the text updated to account for minor changes in the terrain and with stunning new photography, this book will immediately take its place as the most beautiful, most authoritative and most useful book on the much much-loved Lakeland hills.

Guidestones to the Great Langdale Axe Factories

Gabriel M. Blamires
£10.99

These days we are all accustomed to see sign 'posts' to point us on our way, as we travel about the countryside. In many parts of the Lake District landscape, certain large stones - 'megaliths' - occur, with a distinctive characteristic: they are shaped so as to point in significant directions. In this book it is suggested that these megaliths performed a function similar to modern signposts - as signs in stone, to point the way in ancient times.
