Main Street, Kirkby Lonsdale
The Medieval town was defined by four roads which met near St Mary's Church: Mitchelgate (originally called ‘Bichelgate’) came in from Kendal and the west. Fairbank came from the north and Scotland. Mill Brow led east to a ford across the River Lune and routes east, including towards Settle in Yorkshire. Main Street was the road to the Devil’s Bridge and roures south to Lancaster, along the west bank of the Lune.
