TODAY'S post is a simple one - this post is to mark the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Alfred Wainwright, author of the 'Pictorial Guides' of the Lake District.
AW was born in Blackburn, Lancashire, but moved to Kendal, where he lived all his life.
Learn more about the great man by visiting the website of the Wainwright Society, which you can visit here.
I know I have some of AW's books in the bookcase, beautiful reading, I'm sure you do too.

- I was born in the beautiful city of Carlisle, resident of Cumbria. The view from my home includes the Fox Tower, after which I named this blog.
