BECKSIDE

 

        Back to Opening Page

The Community Centre is here together with the Children's Playground, Bowling Green, Tennis Courts, Football and Cricket Pitches, and Fitness Trail. Nearby is St. Cuthbert's Church the Parish Church, with its fine Norman doorway and two very old oak chests. It recently celebrated 800 years of continuous Christian Worship. To the top of the hamlet are many old cottages, Beckside Rooms, and a 16th century overshot mill, recently restored to full working order by its owner. The road continues to Ulverston with stunning views to the Lakeland Fells.
