Whittington: The Village

The village of Whittington in the Lune Valley is located 2 miles from Kirkby Lonsdale.

One of several cottages in the village. 
If you click on the image to enlarge you can see the engraved glass which states that this was the village shop.

The former village school.
Site of the old Post Office.
The road from Kirkby Lonsdale to Lancaster passes through the village.
No shop. No Post office, and even the pub (Dragon's Head) is closed and up for sale. 
A Whittington cat. No sign of Dick though!

An old manor house.

  1. A varied mix of images here, I was interested to read of William Sturgeon. I had not heard of him but he made such an important contribution.
