Furness Abbey to Urswick
on the Cumbrian Cistercian Way
6 miles South Cumbria
Walk through the Vale of Nightshade to Dalton-in-Furness with its tower and St Mary's Church (14th-century font), past the prehistoric Urswick Crag stones to St Mary and St Michael's Church — the oldest in the Furness area, with 9th-century Viking crosses and a figure of St James the pilgrim bearing the scallop shell.
