Beck Foot


Beck Foot is a hamlet near Lowgill in Cumbria, located about 6 miles north-east of Kendal. Lowgill Viaduct crosses the beck, which gives the settlement it's name, and once carried the Ingleton Branch Line. By the viaduct is an old 17th century packhorse bridge over the beck, which flows about half a mile south-east before joining the River Lune near the Crook of Lune Bridge. Beck Foot is on the route of the Dales Way.
