A gentleman in his early 70s took a tumble and banged his head whilst descending Ladder Brow above High Lodore in Borrowdale with his wife. The team sent two vehicles with team members with others going direct expecting a stretcher carry off. On arrival at the casualty the team gave the man a check over and he had recovered enough to be able to descend under his own steam. The man was then taken to Carlisle Infirmary by ambulance for checks.
