Location: Ambleside

Admission: £12 unless you are a member of Friends of the Armitt

The Armitt is a museum, gallery, and library telling the history and heritage of Ambleside, its people, and the surrounding Lake District landscape. It has a collection of over 17,000 Brunskill’s glass plates, covering the period 1860-1906.

The Brunskill brothers were born and lived in Sedbergh until they moved to Bowness and then Windermere. We expect to see a selection of the Brunskill images.
