where ancient hut circles could be seen. The countryside was ideal for walking, dry underfoot and with the scent and ■ sight of the Hawthorne all around. ■ A lunch stop was taken by a stream


near Tosca Farm and was very peaceful apart from some very inquisitive young bullocks. The group then went towards Old Town, passing the beautiful Ter- ; rybank Tarn before turning south to­ wards Hawkrigg Farm, with views over lonely Barbondale. More field paths


brought the group to Tosca Cottage and on through some woodland to Hop House and Hot Ridding. ■After a short road walk they went


through Underlcy Farm to the terrace walk, which leads to Ruskin’s View and the riverside walk back to Devil’s Bridge, where families were picnicking by the river and children were swim- rning and boating. An ice cream by the river made a very pleasant ending to a good day out.
