Mike Warren. Leighton for a while (in rain) so pictures not sharp. Then attended the inauguration of the Tramper route from Leighton to Trowbarrow, Haweswater, Challon Hall allotment Coldwell Meadow and Gaitbarrows and return. It's been several years in preparation and should allow less able-bodied people to enjoy some of our highlights. Why not join the Landscape Trust to enhance the pleasure of this lovely area - see QR code. ... See MoreSee Less
