"Travelling along a very pleasant road under the mountains on the left, and entering Dancing-Gate we come to Lisick-Hall, the estate of John Fisher, Esq; part of the manor of Brundum, but lately purchased free. It is most delightfully situated for a Summer's view of the vale of Keswick on both sides of the Derwent, but stands very bleak, and much exposed to the South winds; but the owner hath planted several Scots and other firs to make it a comfortable Winter's habitation. ..."
