Lake District sketches go on display

A display of sketches showing the changes to an area of the Lake District over a three-year period has gone on display in Rheged, near Penrith.

Those staying in Lake District holiday cottages can go along and see the artwork, which has been produced by Andy Beck, Grough.co.uk reports.

Drawn over a three-year period, the images indicate that erosion has taken place across the fells and Mr Wainright agreed to donate part of the profits from the exhibition to the Fix the Fells project.

This organisation recently carried out a series of repair projects in the Lake District and last month volunteers helped reduce several routes between Red Tarn and Wrynose pass into one single trail in order to minimise environmental damage.

"Andy wants to raise awareness of the issue of path erosion in the fells and is adamant that it”s a problem that can”t be ignored," a spokesperson for Fix the Fells told the news source.
