Lakeland writer, artist and fell walker Alfred Wainwright (1907-91) has influenced thousands of visitors to the Lake District with his beautifully illustrated guidebooks. He was working as Kendal Borough Treasurer when he began his series of
guides, which at one stage were published by The Westmorland Gazette. He famously used his considerable royalties to establish the Kapellan animal shelter outside Kendal (©Westmorland Gazette)
