Photos from the collection rock
Bowder Stone, Borrowdale
People have been visiting the Bowder Stone for over two hundred years, where there has even been a ladder in place since the 1800s so that even genteel visitors may mount the rock and enjoy the views. The views are much less exciting these days, being masked as they are by the surrounding forest.

Capo Sant’Andrea, Elba
