Penrith, Nunnery Walks Waterfall 1893

More about this scene
About ten miles north-east of Penrith, near Staffield, pathways have been cut along the banks of the Croglin Beck where it tumbles down through the sandstone gorge it has carved on its way to join the River Eden. The route begins at Nunnery House, a stately mansion built in about 1740 by Henry Aglionby on the site of an ancient Benedictine convent, hence the romantically named 'Nunnery Walks'. Henry's son Christopher is thought to have laid out the walks in about 1770.
