This is #47 of a weekly Photo Challenge that I set myself – there is no particular theme. The idea behind the challenge is to get myself outside into the Cumbrian countryside, at least once a week.

• This weeks photo is of a typical West Cumbrian street – this is Trumpet Terrace, at Cleator.

Trumpet Terrace stretches for at least a quarter of a mile. These were built by eminent mine owner, John Stirling, who was responsible for many other public buildings in the area. The name is borrowed from a field name of adjacent farms.

For more images from this shoot, please visit Little Ireland.

Capturing what I can't put into words for posterity. I'm content with the silence, as it has so much to say. Besides, I don't trust words. I trust pictures because a photo reveals how rich reality truly is. View all posts by [ Cumbria Photo ]
