House on the Bridge in Ambleside
On this summer morning so fair, I stand with my camera in hand, To capture a building so rare, In the Lake District’s stunning land. The Bridge House in Ambleside, Iconic and steeped in history, A tiny structure built with pride, To escape tax and live free. Once mills thrived with Stock Beck’s power, Industry flourished in this place, But now it’s the Bridge House’s hour, To stand as a symbol of grace. A family once called this place home, Six children in two tiny rooms, But love and nature helped them roam, And thrive amid life’s trials and gloom. As I press the shutter with care, And capture this moment in time, I feel grateful to witness and share, This piece of history so sublime. The Bridge House is more than a mere building, It’s a testament to people’s spirit, Of ingenuity, resilience, and willing, To overcome obstacles and near-limit. So let my ultra-high resolution capture, The beauty of this structure so grand, And let it remind us to nurture, Our history and nature’s wondrous land.
