I was lucky enough to be in the Lake District this weekend to see the wonderful Autumn colours, there will be three pages in total of photographs, all to be uploaded during the week hopefully. The photos on this page were all taken on Saturday 18th October 2003. The weather was unbroken sunshine, but cold in the shade after an overnight frost. For page 2 click here or for page 3 click here.

| The river flows out of the North East Lake District below Blencathra and into Keswick, eventually running into Derwent Water. | ||

| Next destination is a quick stop at Castlerigg Stone Circle. It is located to the East of Keswick, for a map of the area click here. There are 38 stones in total at this ancient site, owned by the National Trust. It is not just the stones that are impressive, but also the views of the surrounding hills. | ||
