About Coniston

  • Coniston Water was the scene of Donald Campbell's fatal attempt on the water speed record on 4 January 1967. Campbell's jet-powered boat Bluebird K7 somersaulted at over 300 mph and Campbell was killed instantly. His body and the wreck of Bluebird were recovered from the lake in 2001, and Campbell was buried in the churchyard at Coniston. John Ruskin, the Victorian art critic, writer, and social reformer, lived at Brantwood on the eastern shore of Coniston Water from 1872 until his death in 1900. His house is now a museum and one of the most visited literary sites in the Lake District.
