Print, soft ground etching, Grange in Borrowdale, Cumberland, by William Green, Ambleside, Westmorland, 1808.
Plate 39 in Sixty Studies from Nature, 1810.
No. 39.
GRANGE, IN BORROWDALE.
All the way from Castlerigg to Bowder Stone is richly replete with fore-ground studies, which will readily be discovered by such as give themselves the trouble to scramble up the sides of the mountains.
The present foreground is taken from the side of Grange Fell, and the village and mountain beyond it were introduced from the same point, after having turned at right angles.
The village of Grange is four miles
from Keswick, and tourists pass through Grange in their progress round the lake.
