  • Description

    "Looking across the confluence of Birk Beck (a major right bank tributary) with the River Lune which has just flowed under the M6 bridge at Tebay. Castle Howe, an ancient Motte and bailey on the far bank, is rather surrounded by twentieth century infrastructure, but can be reached by a public footpath from Old Tebay which follows the Lune's left bank under the motorway bridge. For the very brave, the footpath also fords the River Lune, pretty much at the right hand edge of the photo. I think I'd want a substantial drought before attempting that !"
