Number 27. Newlands is a fine valley, through which is the horse road from Keswick to Buttermere. Skelgill, which is on an eminence, and shaded by massy sycamores, may be seen from many points of this road; it is an interesting object likewise from Derwent Water. The wells of mountains, from the mixture of stones, water, and vegetation, are interesting objects to a painter's eye. |
