Cunsey Beck


Cunsey Beck is a river in Cumbria, which forms at the southern end of Eshwaite Water. It flows for roughly 2 miles in a roughly south-easterly direction to discharge into Windermere (lake), near Cunsey. Cunsey Mill is a 19th century water-powered saw mill on the Beck. In 2014 a micro-hydro electric plant was built near the mill. Cunsey Bridge crosses the Beck upstream of the mill.
