Cumbria Explored: The Village of Kirkoswald
Рет қаралды 4,078
Күн бұрынToday Robert Croser has joined me to show me around the former market town of Kirkoswald in Cumbria.
The village, civil parish and former market town of Kirkoswald lies in the Lower Eden Valley of Cumbria, formerly Cumberland, about 9 miles from Penrith.
The village's name means Church of St Oswald and the parish church is dedicated to Saint Oswald, King of Northumbria. The body of Oswald is believed to have been taken through the village. The church lies on the southern edge of the village overlooking the River Eden close to the bridge which connects Kirkoswald to Lazonby.

Kirkoswald is another pretty little village - Market Town. I just love the way the streets meander thru these old historic towns.

I live in a house built in 1977 and it's the oldest house for miles and miles.....I find these videos fascinating----these houses are hundreds of years old built on streets that were laid out hundreds of years ago.
@RichardVobes 5 жыл бұрын
Yes indeed - they are very old houses. Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment!

The sandstone is triassic sandstone, that is found from the Midlands through to Cheshire and again in the vale of Eden to the East of the Lake District
@RichardVobes 5 жыл бұрын
Ah that must be the same as the red sandstone in Shropshire that I have seen a lot of?

Beautiful village, maybe the key holder will lend you the key to the tower so we can see the view from up there? 😊👍

Yes it would have been great to have a look in the tower.

Ha! We do now, a bit, but in the 1960s, there was so much damage to history! Fortunately, we do have a lot to protect.

I reckon they were - I guess everywhere had gangs like them.
