Loweswater

  • Description

    "....Loweswater is a scattered village. The Church of St Bartholomew’s and the Kirkstile Inn are close by each other, both with stunning views. The Church was renovated and made much larger in 1884. This was due to some lead mines being opened in the area and it was thought that the population would increase. Unfortunately the mines did not produce enough lead and the venture failed. The Kirkstile Inn was originally a working farm and its origins are in the 1600s....."
