Flakebridge, a quiet hamlet, breathes the crisp air of Cumbria. It lies 2.6 km north-east of Appleby-in-Westmorland (from Appleby-in-Westmorland: bearing 50°T, OS grid NY 703 220), and is situated west of Murton village. The landscape here unfolds with a gentle, pastoral grace, where fields, divided by ancient dry-stone walls, stretch towards the horizon under a sky that can shift from the palest blue to the brooding grey of a coming shower. A small, unassuming bridge, giving Flakebridge its name, may well have once been a vital crossing point for those travelling the old routes, its stones worn smooth by the passage of countless feet and hooves. The very quietness of Flakebridge suggests a life lived in close communion with the land, a place where the seasons dictate the rhythm of existence, and the distant bleating of sheep is often the loudest sound. The light, when it breaks through, often possesses a pearlescent quality, illuminating the subtle greens and browns of the Cumbrian countryside.
