The great surrounding hills of the Coniston Fells is seen from the Coppermines Valley which at one time was a heavily industrial area, but is now a fabulous place to walk, as I did in 2012. The scars of the mining past remain, but the hollowed out mountains have survived, and that white building, which used to be the mine manager's house, is now an ideally placed youth hostel.
