Following on from the huge enthusiasm for the Mapped and Oral Histories projects, we are keen to start a Rusland Local History Group. One idea is that we should investigate ancient routeways. There are many old coffin roads, packhorse routes and drove roads that criss-cross the area and it is intriguing to trace these from old maps and on foot. If you are interested in leading or participating in this project, please contact ruslandlsg@cumbriawildlifetrust.org.uk.
