About Kirkland

Kirkland rests in the embrace of Cumbria's sweeping fells, a place where the sky seems to hold a deeper hue. It lies 12.6 km north-north-west of Appleby-in-Westmorland (from Appleby-in-Westmorland: bearing 342°T, OS grid NY 645 324), and is situated north-east of Blencarn village. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and the distant bleating of sheep, a constant reminder of the agricultural heart that beats within Kirkland. Its ancient stone buildings, some showing the weathered faces of centuries, seem to absorb the soft, diffused light that filters through the often-clouded Cumbrian skies. The land rolls away from Kirkland in a patchwork of green fields, crisscrossed by dry stone walls that stand as silent sentinels to the passage of time. Though modest in size, Kirkland possesses a quiet resilience, a steadfastness born of its enduring connection to this wild and beautiful corner of England.
