Ruskin's View and Devil's Bridge

Ruskin's View is a viewpoint at the edge of Kirkby Lonsdale churchyard looking down the Lune valley; Ruskin called it one of the loveliest views in England. A short walk down leads to Devil's Bridge, an old stone bridge over the Lune. Summer weekends bring swimmers and picnickers to the river.
