 Mark Richards - Writer & Broadcaster
The transition from full-time farmer to full-time outdoor writer was a gradual one. In 1973, with the direct encouragement of Alfred Wainwright with whom he regularly spent weekends, he wrote his first walking guide to the Cotswold Way. Since then Mark has developed a pleasure in exploring rural Britain by creating a range of practical, inspirational walking guides, most notably with Cicerone Press. His primary focus since his move to Cumbria in 2001 has been the Lakeland fells and Hadrian's Wall. www.markrichards.info
