I assume you are referring to Castlerigg & Long Meg?

If so, you MUST visit Swinside (Sunkenkirk). Thats an order. :)

Did they move Long Meg over the M5 then? ;p

No, I meant Castlerigg and Swinside. Seen 'em both, but will be re-visiting. Heartily agree regarding the esteem in which you hold the latter :)

Yes, Swinside (& Castlerigg for that matter) absolutely fantastic.
