Bowness Bay Windermere
Mid-20th Century
Image of a print, looking north-west over a rose garden at Bowness Bay where two piers extend into the water. The nearer is at a lower height and has several boats/launches moored while the further, empty steamer pier stands taller out of the water; it has a British Railways 'totem' sign indicating 'Bowness Pier'. Several rowing boats await customers on the beach between the piers and a number of dinghies are moored out in the bay. Across the lake the wooded slopes of the Furness Fells fall steeply to the water while beyond are the Langdales.
