Literary Links
As well as its links with Arthur Ransome, Arnside is associated with a number of other literary figures.
William Cooke has recently published a book entitled Comrades in Letters which explores the friendship of Gordon Bottomley and Edward Thomas and the visits they made to each other.
Bottomley lived for many years at Cartmel before moving to Silverdale. His wife Emily (nee Burton) lived at Arnside before her marriage and Thomas visited them in all three places.
Further details can be found on the Edward Thomas Fellowship website.
