“The Bowder Stone, near Keswick, did not topple down from the mountain side like most visitors assume, for it is not a local rock. It was most likely carried here from Scotland by the glaciers of the Ice Age. It possibly gets its name from Balder, son of the Norse God Odin”

Thank you for the old photographs of the Bowder stone.
On some old postcards a face can be seen on one side.
