The Cop Stone

31/12/02ce A return visit – again I was initially disappointed, I’d once again got it in my head that this stone was bigger! Why I was so bothered I just don’t know. One of my shots shows it to scale, and looking at it now it doesn’t seem that small... The view did again, however, impress me. From here the ugly chimneys of the Shap granite works, belching great plumes of smoke, serve as a reminder of just how close you are to a lot of the other Cumbrian sites, all within pretty easy walking distance.
