Our bold pair head for the hills again as they stumble off in the footsteps of Jonathan Dodgson Carr. Who he? Well in 1831 he decided Kendal wasn’t big enough for his father and himself to be rival bakers so he set off to make his fortune in Carlisle. Which he did. Carr’s biscuits were exported to every sweet tooth in the empire.
Eric Robson and his bolshie terrier set off in JD’s footsteps on The Miller’s Way across the eastern fells of Lakeland and through the valley of the River Petteril to the Border City and the Carr family’s steam powered mills at Silloth.
