Wasdale Head Show and Shepherd’s Meet

Walked on 11/10/2014

Today was the annual show at Wasdale Head – this shepherd’s meet is over 100 years old and is one of the latest (if not the latest) show of all in the Lake District. The weather turned out to be really good in the end, much better than was forecast or expected.
