Keswick to Threlkeld Railway
Five years after Storm Desmond swept across Cumbria, cutting valuable links between villages and towns, the Keswick to Threlkeld Railway Trail has reopened. The £7.9 million project to reconnect the two Lakeland communities via the old railway is now complete, with one or two new additions. On-site interpretation includes information on local wildlife, the history of the railway and the impact of the 2015 storm floods on the local area, while the new trail logo, which consists of a native water crowfoot flower and a railway wheel, represents the harmony between nature and heritage. lakedistrict.gov.uk
