Brecon Beacons
        for pony-treks
Cumbrian fells 
      & bubbling becks
Dartmoor 
  with rocks rain scarred 
Lake District views
     beloved of bards
Northumbria on moor & hill
where Roman echoes linger still

Stone-bridged hamlets 
                   in the Dales 
with enclosed leas along its vales
Snowdonia one thousand yards high   
      reached by slow trains up to the sky
Pembroke with its distant trail so long
   heritages for us to protect & prolong

National treasures to preserve & enjoy
 by rich,the famous &hoi poloi.
