Meet the team

Ever wanted to put a name to a face? Two of our contributors to this blog will be running events in the next couple of weeks. Your curiosity can be satisfied by joining Jack Deane for a day of Dry Stone Walling.

Come and have a go, we'll provide the gloves, you provide the enthusiasm and an absorbing and very satisfying day is guaranteed! It's happening this Sunday and details are:
Meet Maggies Bridge car park Loweswater any time between 10am and 2pm. The walling site will be signposted from there. There is no charge for this event.

On Thursday June 28th, Andy Warner will be indulging his fascination of all things historical on an exciting guided walk that will unlock the secrets of the legendary Goldscope Mine. Once upon a time the Lake District was a very different place to how we see it today. Join him to unearth the 300 year history of the mine, and discover another world, a world of adits and leats, crosscuts and stampers, a Lake District Klondike worked by a rare breed of men and women. You will see the District in a whole new light - that's a promise. You can find out more http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/whats-on/find-an-event/#iframeEvents
