Ribble Lakeland Book : publicity booklet : Ribble Motor Services : Preston, Lancashire : 1963 : map of Ribble bus and coach services in the Lake District

            For many years the Ribble Motor Services bus and coach company issued this booklet on Lakeland detailing their services and suggestions for walks, etc., in the large areas of the English Lake District they operated in. Ribble, based in Preston, Lancashire, were the dominant operator in the North West and this included most of Lancashire, the county at the time covering much of the southern Lake District, and Westmorland. The guide also gives details of joint services operated with neighbouring Cumberland Motor Services whose operating area covered the county of that name and that included much of the northern sections of  the Lakes,

The cover is now in a more contemporary style and includes various illustrations of 'things' Lake District, flora and fauna.
