Countrystride #25: Smugglers, bombs and Plague Dogs - A walk on Wetherlam

17 Jan 2020

Description

…in which we climb the perennial Coniston favourite from the Tilberthwaite quarries up the breezy ridge of Steel Edge, one of Wainwright’s missing routes. As we stroll, with George Kitching, we discuss Andy Goldsworthy’s sheepfolds, the tricks of Langdale smuggler Lanty Slee, how a WWI Howitzer ended up below the Coniston waves, and an unlikely IRA terror plot to assassinate John Major using Levers Water.  You can read George's blog at lakelandwalkingtales.co.uk
