Last year when we went to the show I was absolutely fascinated by this carved walking stick class so was determined to take a picture for 365. This little selection is only about a third of the entrants but the detail is better on this closer photo.
There were all different classes for different sorts of carvings & heads. Some are called a thumb stick were you just hold the walking stick with your thumb & some incorporated bone....it was a really interesting display!
Of course walking sticks & shepherds crooks are very important in the sheep & walking county of Cumbria & the Lake District.
