Plein air painting at Rannerdale a famous spot has spectacular displays of bluebells. The 'secret valley' of Rannerdale where a fabled battle took place. It is said that local settlers and Norsemen resisted invasion from the Normans: they lured them into the valley and slaughtered them all. Come April-May, the valley is covered in bluebells and local legend has it that this is because of the blood spilt. Acrylic on canvas 18" x 14"
