A rescue team was called out to aid a man who had got stuck at a Lake District beauty spot.

Patterdale Mountain Rescue Team was alerted about 11.55am on Saturday when the walker became stuck below the main bridge at Aira Force.

A team spokesperson said the man was above the main falls and in a very difficult and dangerous position.

“Police, fire and rescue, ambulance and the team went to his aid. The man was safely recovered before the team arrived.”
