A FORMER Radcliffe resident has had a book published about his life in the Lake District.

Keith Holland (79), lived in Radcliffe until the early 1930s, before moving with his 12 brothers and sisters to Winster Valley, on the eastern shore of Windermere.

Mr Holland said: "Although many of the incidents I have written about in the book took place many years ago they probably were the best years anyone could have chosen to have lived in."

The book is available from Helm Press at £11.95 (£1.75pp), by calling 01539 561321.
