The village is seen clearly here, with the trees on Dunmallet (or Dunmallard) Hill just beyond it. In the distance are the hills of Northern Lakeland. Almost dead centre can be seen the two cranes which will be used, I hope within the next few days, to lift the new bridge across the River Eamont into position over the river. For a history of the bridges old and new, see www.geograph.org.uk/article/The-Pooley-Bridges.
