The Devil's Chair (Iowa) - Ulverston, Cumbria, England

Ulverston, Cumbria, England

The Devil's Chair or Devil's Armchair in Ulverston is an ambiguous chair that appears to have been carved in to a small rocky terrain, which is used for climbing, near the monument Hoad in Ulverston. Sometimes the rock 'wall' itself is referred to as the Devil's Armchair but that is because at the top there is a "chair" large enough for four adults to sit in which is carved into the rock surface. Naturally or not, no-one knows.

Famous quotes containing the word england:

    If men will believe it, sua si bona norint, there are no more quiet Tempes, nor more poetic and Arcadian lives, than may be lived in these New England dwellings. We thought that the employment of their inhabitants by day would be to tend the flowers and herds, and at night, like the shepherds of old, to cluster and give names to the stars from the river banks.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
