About How

How, a Cumbrian village, breathes the quiet air of the North West. It lies 4.9 km south-south-west of Brampton (from Brampton: bearing 204°T, OS grid NY 510 566), and is situated north-east of Fenton village. The surrounding landscape, a gentle expanse of green fields stitched by hedgerows, often catches a particular quality of light in the late afternoon, turning the distant fells to hazy shades of amethyst. Though small, How possesses a certain grounded character, a reflection perhaps of its agricultural roots, where the murmur of nearby streams can be heard on a still day. The very stones of its older cottages seem to hold a quiet dignity, their weathered surfaces testament to seasons past.
