No. 41.
BORROWDALE NEAR BOWDER STONE. Bowder Stone is two or three hundred yards nearer Rosthwaite than the place from which this view is taken; but, like the village of Rosthwaite, it cannot be seen from this station, being hid from the eye by the rocky foreground on the left. ... In the middle distance of the view before us, on the right, rises from the river Derwent, Castle Crag, but here we do not see its summit; Rosthwaite Pike and Glenamatara, majestically towering from the valley, close the scene. |
