Prospect Cumbria Map

About Prospect

Prospect, a quiet corner of Cumbria, seems to hold its breath under the wide northern sky. It lies 2.6 km west-south-west of Aspatria (from Aspatria: bearing 247°T, OS grid NY 118 408), and is situated north-north-east of Oughterside village. The land around Prospect rolls with a gentle, almost sighing grace, fields of green and gold stretching towards horizons softened by the frequent haze. Life here moves with a measured pace, the air carrying the faint scent of damp earth and distant livestock, a comforting constancy. The houses of Prospect, often built of sturdy local stone, seem to huddle together as if sharing secrets whispered by the wind that sweeps across the open fells. Even the sunlight, when it breaks through the clouds, possesses a particular clarity, illuminating the quietude of this Cumbrian settlement.
