Number 43. The remote mountain in this view is Eagle Crag, where that voracious bird, the eagle, formerly built its nest. There are now none in the north of England. The last inhabited these rocks, and were destroyed about twenty years ago. The river spanned by Stonethwaite Bridge, is that branch of the Derwent which runs from the summit of the Stake; the division of Langdale and Borrowdale, and of Westmorland and Cumberland. |
