Waterside Cumbria Map

About Waterside

Waterside rests in a quiet corner of Cumbria. It lies 4.3 km south-west of Wigton (from Wigton: bearing 231°T, OS grid NY 221 457), and is situated south-south-west of Waverton village. The hamlet draws its name from the nearby waters, perhaps the gentle flow of a stream that sketches a silver line through the surrounding farmland, or the broader presence of the River Wampool, whose waters have shaped this land for centuries. Here, the sky often seems to stretch to an immense, soft canvas, its light painting the fields in hues of muted gold and verdant green. The very air carries a subtle scent of damp earth and the distant, comforting aroma of woodsmoke, a testament to the enduring rural character of Waterside. The cluster of buildings, some with slate roofs that have weathered countless Cumbrian seasons, huddle together as if sharing the quietude of this place.
