Tower Wood, Cumbria Weather
About Tower Wood, Cumbria
Tower Wood commands a quiet stretch of land where the air carries the cool, damp breath of the nearby water. It lies 3.8 miles south-south-west of Bowness-on-Windermere (from Bowness-on-Windermere: bearing 192°T, OS grid SD 389 909), and is situated south of Ghyll Head village. Within the expansive boundaries of the Lake District National Park, Tower Wood occupies a landscape defined by the steady, vertical reach of ancient timber. To the north-east, the Great Tower Plantation offers a dense congregation of trees that filters the afternoon sun into long, sharp shafts of pale gold. The terrain here rises with a deliberate, muscular grace, particularly toward the nearby slopes of Moor How where the earth turns to heather and rough grass. Water defines the periphery of the locale, as the modest currents of Burrow Beck trace a winding path through the lower ground. This geography lends Tower Wood a sense of seclusion, far removed from the bustle of the more frequented tourist thoroughfares. Every stone wall and gatepost in Tower Wood seems to hold the quiet patience of a place that has long watched the seasons shift across the fells.
