 Windermere
|
|
|
Windermere
is on the on the hillside, a short distance from the shores
of Lake Windermere, a popular attraction for tourists in the
Lake Disrict, and Bowness-on-Windermere
.
Once
a village called Birthwaite, the arrival of the railway 1847
meant that the railway company named the village after the
lake.
Windermere
was developed by wealthy industrialists who could live in
the Lake District and travel to work by rail. As the area
around the station was developed it merged with Bowness.
Lakeside Pier, beside the station,
houses the Aquarium of the Lakes. This attraction has
over 30 displays illustrating the creatures living in and
alongside the freshwater lake.
