The Lake District | Cathedral Cave & Slater Bridge in Little Langdale | Beautiful easy walk.
This short walk in England's Lake District national park brings in 2 hidden gems. Built in the 17th centuary, Slater Bridge in an ancient and listed structure connecting Little Langdale with the nearby slate mines, a key industry in Cumbria's past. This bridge spans the River Brathay as it runs from Little Langdale Tarn to Elterwater.
After crossing Slater Bridge we journey a short distance to the nearby slate mines containing several caves and tunnels including the stunning Cathedral Chamber with its magnificent central pillar and cathedral window.
After exploring these sites from land and air we travel across the ford bridge back to the Three Shires pub before a brief trip to Ambleside for refreshments.

Last year I cashed my head on the entrance roof. It was raining and it looked like a scene from a chainsaw massacre ;o(
