About Newbiggin-on-Lune

Newbiggin-on-Lune reposes in the Cumbrian landscape, a place where the quietude of the fells begins to assert its gentle dominion. It lies 7.9 km west-south-west of Kirkby Stephen (from Kirkby Stephen: bearing 243°T, OS grid NY 703 053), and is situated west-north-west of Ravenstonedale village. The Lune, a river that lends its name to Newbiggin-on-Lune, carves a patient course through the surrounding countryside, its waters reflecting the pale, often brilliant, skies of the North West. The very air here seems to carry the scent of damp earth and resilient heather, a fragrance that clings to the stone walls of the modest dwellings. Though not a place of grand pronouncements, Newbiggin-on-Lune possesses a certain enduring character, a steadfastness that speaks of generations who have lived and laboured under the wide Cumbrian heavens. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of greens and browns, roll away towards horizons that promise only more of the same tranquil, unhurried beauty.
