Gray's Journal Entry: ‘Half a mile further brought us to Borough Top (pronounced Brow Top), another eminence about half a mile on this side [south-east] of Keswick. Here, the view, delineated in the annexed engraving, burst upon the eye with inconceivable splendour, and exhibits the general form of Derwentwater much better, perhaps, than from any other point of view. The craggy mountain which first presents itself on the left is known by the name of Wallow Crag: the hollow in its crumbling summit is called Lady’s Rake, from the generally received tradition, that by this steep, the ambitious Lady Derwentwater effected her escape when the Earl was arrested for High Treason. The low mountains in front are Grange Fells, in which Castle-Crag is conspicuous, and behind these, Bull-Crag, Sergeant’s Crag and Eagle-Crag (once celebrated for being the resort of those birds of prey), successively rear their heads, forming a conspicuous part of Borrodale Fells; and the amphitheatre of mountains is closed by Causeway Pike and Grisedale Pike, which is two thousand seven hundred and fifty-six feet above sea level. At the foot of these stupendous heights appears the Lake itself, which is broken into several pretty bays.’
