 Introduction:

Covering some 885 square miles (2,292 sq km) the Lake District is to many people, the most beautiful place on Earth. In this corner of Northwest England you'll find spectacular mountain scenery, wild and lonely moorland, secluded dales, picturesque lakes & rivers, beautiful areas of woodland, bustling towns and quiet stone built villages; something to satisfy every ones taste.

I thought of this idea purely by accident while I was using a map to make myself a list of the churches I still needed to visit. I was thinking to myself, that had they been marked a bit more distinctly then it would have made the job a much easier. It was then that I had one of those "penny dropping" moments; if it would would make this easier for me, then perhaps other people may find it useful as a tool not only to see at a glance how churches, tarns Etc are distributed throughout the Lake District, but to open the page for the place in question.

Each entry in the directory database is marked on the map with a red flag. To open a specific place, simply click the flag.

For the time being I've only created overview maps for churches and tarns. As more articles are added to the other categories I will create additional maps.
