The huge crane which lifted the new bridge into position two days ago still dominates the village. For a history of the bridges old and new, see www.geograph.org.uk/article/The-Pooley-Bridges . Dunmallet (or Dunmallard) Hill is the wooded hill just behind the village. In the distance are the Northern Fells, with Blencathra (aka Saddleback) conspicuous to the left.
