Throughout his working life as one of our finest actors, he regularly trundled over many a fell, with a Mars bar and a compass, and appreciated the peace and objectivity the “lumps” gave him. He would have been so thrilled to know that he was helping to preserve this magical place by sponsoring the footbridge at Sty Head Gill. Remembering with so much love my dear husband and friend.

Tony Wright

The bridge between The Boardwalk and Bench, High Dam is dedicated to Tony Wright. Donated by Rachel and Roz Sullivan as a fitting memorial to a man whose life purpose was to help as many as possible. Also for our dogs, Rooney, Dylan, Vasco and Rufus who love(d) High Dam even more than he did. Tony was the dearest friend, helper and mentor to family, friends and community. When you stand here, perchance seeing the river of primroses meandering downhill in springtime, (“Beautiful little chaps” he’d say), bless a man who was a force for good in this world.
