Julia Bradbury explores the work of fell walker Alfred Wainwright. Here she climbs Helm Crag, defined by the rock formations at its summit nicknamed the Lion and the Lamb.
Series in which Julia Bradbury explores the Lake District landscape that inspired the great British fell walker and author Alfred Wainwright to produce his beautifully crafted guidebooks.
Julia is in the village of Grasmere for a climb up Helm Crag, defined by the collection of rock formations at its summit - a feature that has lent it the nickname of the Lion and the Lamb.
