More about this scene
This classic view of England's largest lake was taken from the south end of Loughrigg. Ambleside town is round the corner to the left. The steamer terminal at Waterhead (left) had been established well before the time of this photograph, and the large buildings to the right of the pier, now a Youth Hostel, had more recently been constructed. The River Brathay meanders across the meagre flat land before entering the lake. Immediately on its left bank is the site of the successive Roman forts known as Galava.
