Tilberthwaie Lane, Lake District - Appeal to raise money

I don't know whether it is appropriate to post this here or not. If not, I'm sure the mods will remove it.

GLASS have launched an appeal to raise money to help with essential maintenance on Tilberthwaite Lane in the lake district.

They have set-up a Just Giving page here: https://www.justgiving.com/Sue-Walker6 for people to donate.

The following quote from the page hopefully explains everything:

Quote:
To support an appeal by the Lake Distict ranger for the National Trust covering Little Langdale, including the Tilberthwaite UCR which, as you’ll know, is a popular legal route with green laners. The route is suffering quite badly from erosion and, understandably in the current climate, the council feel unable to invest in any maintenance of the surface.
Unfortunately, the erosion is causing two of the historic stone walls to become unstable, and they’re at risk of collapse. This could cause a safety hazard to users, major stock management problems for our tenant farmers, damage to our historic environment, and cost many thousands of pounds to re-erect. The National Trust are planning to deal with this issue pro-actively and reinforce the eroded banks beneath the walls, in order to stop any further erosion – but they really do with your support. Help GLASS support the National Trust in keeping our Green Lanes open. The National Trust understand that vehicles have a legal right to use this route and do not wish to stop them. The work to repair this lane will cost in the region of £4000 in labour and transporting stone.


If you support green laning, please consider donating. Thumbs Up

I was just about to post that, have been sharing it on facebook Laughing Definitely think it belongs on here and anybody who had driven this lane should make a donation as it is a brilliant lane and should be saved Thumbs Up

Just a small bump back up the list, they have already got 25% of the target Bow down

If you use green lanes or want to in the future this is a good cause to support, so any amount however small will help Thumbs Up

A few photos from the lane in question, it has to have some of the best views of any green lane

Well that didn't work Euan, I used a different version of it in the end.

As a thumbnail in my gallery it is on its side, but I edited and rotated and saved and it looked ok but wont display the right way up Question Question

Anyway, nearly halfway there Thumbs Up
