Dist:1.1km east<br/>This is one of the most beautiful views in the UK. When you come over the top of Kirkby moor and see the panorama in front of you it is stunning. This photo only captures a very small part of it. You can see the village hamlets, Duddon Estuary, Corney Fell and part of Black Coombe to the left of the image.
