Lanercost Priory, England, near the end of Hadrian's Wall is a partially ruined church in gorgeous red sandstone built from 1169.
Carlisle Castle, started 1093 as a wooden structure and from 1122 rebuilt in stone, protected the frontier to Scotland and seems to be still in use.
Carlisle Cathedral from 1123 and redone in the 13th century was an abbey at first. After the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII. the church became a cathedral. In the civil war the west end was demolished to be reused for strengthening the castle.
Wetheral Gatehouse is the rest of a priory founded 1106, later used as a manse and a hayloft.
Penrith Castle dates from the later 14th century.
Mayburgh Henge and King Arthur's Round Table are prehistoric places from around 3000 to 1000 BC of unknown use.
Clifton Hall is the sweet rest of a manor house.
Countess Pillar - probably the least interesting sight of my journey - commemorates the last time Countess Anne Clifford saw her mother.
Brougham Castle was host for Kind Edward I. in 1300.
Castlerigg Stone Circle is around 5000 years old and is situated in a grand place among the mountains of Cumbria.
Ambleside Roman Fort with its scant remains lies on the banks of Lake Windermere - the town full of tourists even in late September...
Hardknott Roman Fort is situated dramatically in the hills near Hardknott Pass - which is an adventure in itself even in the 21th century.
Finally Ravenglass Roman Bath House - near the Irish Sea.

Thank you.
Great landscape. When I drove over Hardknott pass the SatNav said something like 40 minutes for 20 km which I couldn't believe but it was accurate. Tiny roads, few and very slim passing places, sharp turns, steep inclines and even a bicycle race.

Mrs B. recalls an incident from her youth, at Hardknott. The family car was so low-powered it couldn't make it over the top, even in first gear. SO her dad reversed up the last bit with them walking behind.

Crazy. Makes you wonder even more how the Romans build a fort there...

I have one more part to publish. A journey to Scotland - highlights for our daughter - is booked, another to Shetland is in the works and I hope for a third in September somewhere in England, maybe Cornwall and Devon.
