Comment on Lady Anne’s Way: day 6 – Appleby to Penrith by Nigel

Daryll, apologies for the late response. The door knocker is at Brougham Hall, pretty much the last historical site you visit before you enter Penrith city. The official route ends in the centre of town at the market square.

Hello walkers,
I have lost my guide book and not been able to buy another. Been on order 6 months now.
I have the last day to do. I have worked out the route but can you tell me the historical stuff for the last day? What is in Penrith, Lady Anne-wise, besides the Br Castle and where does the route actually finish? What is the big door knocker in your photo?
Many Thanks,
Daryll 6/8/2012

I worked at the tungsten mine the summer of 1952 and would be interested in talking to you about it. I have lots of info about it which you may find interesting. Please email your address so I can contact you.

Looks like better weather than we have just had in Glencoe. Did have one stunning day when we managed the Aonach Eagach, otherwise pouring rain. Great to see you out and about with the two dogs.

Greame and Marion.

Great to see photos of Boomer and Jilly enjoying themselves on the trail! Lynn talked about them as we started out on the second day so it’s nice to put faces (and tails!) to the names. Love their pannier packs as well

Comment on Day 13: Hill of Roughbank Wildcamp to Dunnotar Castle (the end!) by Jon Hancock

Well done! I finished in pouring rain at St. Cyrus, which was perhaps an appropriate end to a very wet Challenge but it does look as though you had a better finale. Always a delight to read how others fared on the way; and great to say hello again, even if it was briefly.
