Landslip beside Roughten Gill
Landslip beside Roughten Gill
Roughten Gill drains the western side of Blencathra. The vegetation of the slipped ground appears to be of a different shade of green; could the 'agitation' caused by the slip have released nutrients from the soil below that have allowed more vigorous growth there?
