The English Lake District - A World Heritage Area In the Making?
A brief review of the Lake Dsitrict’s bid for World Heritage Status.
The Lake District in Cumbria is England’s largest National Park, one of 14 in the United Kingdom. At approximately 34 miles wide and covering some 885 square miles, it is also home to England’s highest mountain - Scafell Pike - England’s deepest lake - Wastwater - and England’s longest Lake - Windemere.
Some well-known towns include Keswick, Ambleside and Bowness-on-Windermere by the lakes, and of course Kendal, which is on the South East boundary of the designated National Park area. Kendal is also the town where the Lake District World Heritage Project, chaired by Cumbria County Council, is based.
