Askham Fell - Cumbria

Setting off from just above Ullswater, near Pooley Bridge.

Ascending Askham Fell (actually more like a moor)

Half a mile to the top of the fell

Cloud rising out of the Lowther Valley

Crossing the river Lowther....

......and following it into the Lowther estate.

First view of the ruined part of  Lowther Castle

Full view of the castle with the occupied part to the left

Zooming in on the main entrance

St Michael's church on the Lowther estate

Askham bridge over the Lowther 
just below the village of Askham

Signs of spring not too far away 

Askham village green

Back on Askham fell and zooming in on Penrith

Returning on the fell to Ullswater

The view south down Ullswater

Zooming in Pooley Bridge with its steamer pier
