Little Salkeld Cumbria Map

About Little Salkeld

Little Salkeld rests quietly in Cumbria, a place where the sky seems to hold a particular shade of grey-blue. It lies 7.8 km north-east of Penrith (from Penrith: bearing 41°T, OS grid NY 566 361), and is situated east-south-east of Great Salkeld village. The River Eden, a ribbon of cool water, flows nearby, its banks often fringed with reeds that whisper secrets to the passing breeze. Ancient dry-stone walls, meticulously crafted, trace the contours of the fields, their grey stones weathered by countless seasons. The village itself is a collection of cottages, their roofs a comforting patchwork of slate, their gardens bursting with the riotous colours of roses and fuchsias in the summer months. A palpable sense of quietude pervades Little Salkeld, a gentle counterpoint to the grander, more boisterous landscapes of the Lake District National Park, which lies not too far afield.
