DERWENT WATER, FROM CROW PARK.
...
The view from Crow Park is into Borrowdale.
Vicar's Island is a principal feature of the middle distance, and it is to be reached by boats from the pier on the opposite shore; in the neighbourhood of which pier are moored various small craft for the navigation of the lake; the rocks of Lowdore, with its water-fall, are over the boat-house, and to the left, the mountains of Watenlath. Beyond Vicar's Island, and over the middle of the lake see Grange Fell, Grange Crag, Castle Crag, and Gate Crag; the mountains beyond Rosthwaite terminate the distance, of which Rosthwaite Pike and Great End are the most considerable.
