Location:- Evening and the Buttermere Pines at the head of Buttermere are catching the last of the light. The Lake District, Cumbria…. all over shadowed by the skyline of Haystacks
Where ever you are this Wednesday…..
Please Remember to ….
Stay Safe …. Be Kind…. Look After Each Other

How lovely, and Buttermere–do you know the background of this unusual name?

Mere is easy…it is another old English name for a lake (any size). As far as I recall the Butter part is a derivation of an old Norse name of Buthar. Buthar’s Mere. there are lots of names in that part of the country that owe their routes to the Norse ‘invaders’!. There is also a village on lakeside that is named after the Lake… Buttermere
