The images in these galleries represent the unrivalled beauty of the English landscape. Cumbria or the lake District as it is better known is famous for its lakes and mountains where names of Norse origin linger in the area, streams are termed becks, from the Old Norse 'bekr', mountains are 'fells' from the Norse fjall, waterfalls forces (fos), ravines 'gills' and small lakes are termed tarns which derives from 'tjorn', meaning teardrop. Yorkshire has its own landscape identity with vast areas of moors patterned with dry stone walls. Fascinating lime stone pavements give a ruggedness of its own and delving further there are cascading waterfalls and rivers snaking their way through the valleys.On the coast there are long sandy beaches with medieval castles and quaint fishing villages and hidden coves. |
