Brackenthwaite How tootle

A tiny stroll after an impromptu pub lunch.

Route: Leaving the car at the National Trust car park and heading south but above the lakeshore path forcing a right turn and descent to visit the Boat House. Then retracing our steps up hill into the woods swinging left to take a wall side path eventually climbing Brackenthwaite How. Descending west, pausing to look, rather sadly and in vain, for a lost earring made by Mij, and then on by Roger's Steps to the National Trust car park.

Conditions: still, clear but cold.

Pub: (earlier) The Kirkstile Inn, Loweswater  for Cumbrian Legendary Ales’ Loweswater Gold and IPA No 1 (seen for the first time).
