Friar’s Crag
Keswick, Cumbria - England, UK
|
| Friar’s Crag is a scenic rocky outcrop, with views across Derwentwater. Reportedly the site of Ruskin’s earliest and fondest memories, Friar’s Crag today offers a haven of tranquillity, close to Keswick itself. The best time to visit this famous viewpoint is on a calm evening, any time of the year. The origin of the name is believed to lie with the friars who would row across the lake with supplies for the hermit on one of the islands. |
