Tales of life in Grange over Sands – a small town in the North of England

The musings, sometimes comical, often irreverent, of a Cumbrian ‘offcomer’

I want to read your tales of small town life!

About Me

A transplant from the city trying to make a life in a small northern town in Cumbria… a place where everyone knows my business before I do! I’m not famous (yet) in these parts, people just talk about me as if I am.

Tag Along

I invite you to join me as I record small town life through the lens of my camera and share my reflections on how the simple life can be a good thing.

Grange – The Town

The town, in case you are interested, is Grange over Sands – situated just to the south of the beautiful Lake District National Park which can be found in the county of Cumbria, England.

A Slow Start

I had intended to start sharing this project and journey with you in the Spring of 2015. Life, as so often happens, conspired to delay that beginning but, hey (Grange-over-Sands is a small town right?) it just goes to show we need a slower pace to really see what goes on around us. Travel with me and enjoy.
