It's funny how something as simple as a lane can be so interesting. There's a lane in south Cumbria, very close to the M6 that I often walk if I'm returning from a site visit in Cumbria. It's called the Old Scotch Road, and it's an old droving road that cattle were brought from Scotland to Cumbria along. Apparently a few hundred years ago it wasn't uncommon to see men in full Highland regalia walking along this lane with their cattle. It's this link with the past that fascinates me about this lane as well as the wide, botanically diverse verges with lots of inverts! <br />Cheers, SeumusFleetwood Bird Observatoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09618126367011059208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31159349.post-58655961302203645162021-11-22T08:55:59.451+00:002021-11-22T08:55:59.451+00:00Long may it be so Michael... cheers...Long may it be so Michael... cheers...Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01985665182124985194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31159349.post-2364923258114358362021-11-21T20:02:12.445+00:002021-11-21T20:02:12.445+00:00Many's the time I've travelled that lane i...Many's the time I've travelled that lane in the bus when I was a lad on my way to my grandparents at Embleton.
