About Santon Bridge

Santon Bridge, a quiet settlement in Cumbria, rests where the landscape begins to soften its mountainous edges. It lies 13.4 km south-east of Egremont (from Egremont: bearing 131°T, OS grid NY 110 015), and is situated west-north-west of Eskdale Green village. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and distant peat fires, a constant reminder of the surrounding fells that cup the hamlet. A small, weathered bridge, the namesake of Santon Bridge, arches gracefully over a briskly flowing beck, its ancient stones smoothed by countless seasons. The scattered houses, their slate roofs gleaming faintly under the often-grey Cumbrian sky, seem to huddle together for warmth and companionship. It is a place where the quietude of nature asserts itself, allowing the mind to wander with the clouds that drift above the high ground.
