Number 68. The source of the Greta is Leathes Water, from which it runs through St. John's vale, by Threlkeld to Keswick, and joins the Derwent at Portinscale. The view of Keswick here given, is from the road to Penrith, near the Turnpike-gate; the knob on the mountain is called Causey Pike; that in the same line, but more distant, is Grasmere, which mountain rises from Crummock Water, but displays the finest line from Lowes Water. |
