[de]lightful prospects up the lake. On the Cumberland side,
Colonel Salmond's beautiful residence at Waterfoot, retires from
the view; on the margin of the lake are the villas of Rampsbeck,
Beau-Thorn, Lemon-House, and Old-Church; at a little distance
Watermillock; and at Hallsteads, on a fine promontory with
undulating grounds, John Marshall, Esq. has an elegant house.
Lyulph's Tower is a hunting box, built by the late Duke of
Norfolk, in his deer park; and Airey Force may be seen by
application to the keeper who resides here. Glencoin is a farm
placed in a sweet recess, where a brook divides the counties of
Cumberland and Westmorland. At the foot of Glenridding, the Rev.
H. Askew has a tasteful cottage; and towards the foot of Grisdale
(sic), the seat of W. Marshall, Esq. stands upon the site of the
ancient Patterdale Hall.
