Lamplugh, Cumbria Weather
About Lamplugh, Cumbria
Lamplugh commands a quiet authority over the rising folds of the Cumbrian landscape, where the air tastes perpetually of damp moss and high, distant stone. It lies 5.6 miles north-east of Cleator Moor (from Cleator Moor: bearing 49°T, OS grid NY 088 209), and is situated north-east of Beck village. The geology here is a patient architecture of gritstone and slate, grounding the horizon in shades of iron and charcoal. To the south, the clear, quick pulse of Rakegill Beck carves a path through the bracken, its rhythmic splashing the only counterpoint to the silence of the fells. Lamplugh turns its face toward the slopes of High Hows, a brooding presence that catches the low, thin light of winter afternoons with a pale, metallic sheen. Behind the churchyard, the land tilts sharply, revealing the hidden, sheltered hollow of Holedale where the wind loses its sharp edge. Farmers here have long worked a stubborn soil that demands as much as it yields, their lives measured by the slow turn of the season and the migration of sheep across the high pastures. The houses, built from the very earth they occupy, seem to have grown from the foundations rather than been placed upon them.
