Saunterings:  Walking in North-West England

Places

sr tree Saunterings is a set of reflections based upon walks around the counties of Cumbria, Lancashire and North Yorkshire in North-West England (as defined in the Preamble). Apart from the Dales, Hills, and so on listed at the webpages linked from the banner above there are other places, such as antiquities, geological features and good viewpoints, that may be of interest to a walker (well, to me, anyway).

Below is a list of some of them. I've squashed the list to the left so that it's readable on mobile phones. The right-hand column indicates a walk to or around the place, the number being a link to a Sauntering visit and a + indicating a pre-Sauntering visit.
