The Bowderstone (Liz Hodgson)
The subject of the book has
more to it than you would expect. Well it is only a large boulder. It has
a curiosity and a history that I first discovered
from an old postcard. I have visited the Bowder stone for many years and enjoyed
every time I ventured into Borrowdale. Discovering that there is a legend
connected to the stone made me want to find out more. A legend forgotten in
time. This gives the stone an added interest to people, it is no longer just
a stone that has fallen from above. The legend means that it is more important
than anyone can imagine. The face that can be seen on the stone, possibly
a carving, is possibly the source of the legend. The story of the Bowder stone
will make a visit interesting and you can have your picture taken on the largest
head in Cumbria.
