The Location
Friar’s Crag is Keswick’s beautiful lakeshore path and one
of the best loved, most walked upon routes in England. Derwentwater
is famed as the setting for many of the novels of Beatrix Potter, including
Squirrel Nutkin. As a result many fans are inspired to visit the lake.
However, the winter rains wash the path surface away each year and
the many visitors also contribute to the erosion problem.
The Project
The National Trust are
helping to give the footpath a more permanent and substantial surface
which resists flooding and erosion. At the same time they are upgrading
the route to wheelchair standard to improve access for all.
