The Howe, Cumbria Weather
About The Howe, Cumbria
The Howe occupies a limestone shelf where the earth seems to hold its breath in anticipation of the coming rain. It lies 4.5 miles south-west of Kendal (from Kendal: bearing 231°T, OS grid SD 457 884), and is situated west-south-west of Brigsteer village. This quiet collection of dwellings rests within the expansive boundaries of the Lake District National Park, where the horizon is defined by the sharp, grey teeth of the surrounding fells. To the east, the low, moss-softened slopes of Pinfold Hill rise to meet the light, while the ghosts of industry linger at the nearby Lime Kiln Row, where stone once surrendered to fire. The Howe sits as a silent witness to the slow, persistent work of the elements, watching the nearby Lyth Main Drain carve its vein through the valley floor. Sunlight here catches the high, pale walls of the houses, casting shadows that stretch long and thin across the verdant pastures. The air remains crisp, carrying the scent of damp earth and crushed fern from the limestone pavements. Life at The Howe moves with the deliberate pace of the seasons, unencumbered by the frantic urgency of the world beyond the hills.
