Ulverston to Cartmel Priory
on the Cumbrian Cistercian Way
The final stage to Cartmel Priory — the 'Cathedral of the Lakes' — a parish church unusually large for its village. The earliest mention of Cartmel dates to 680 AD when monks of Lindisfarne took ownership of the land. Spend a moment of silence on the ancient carved wooden misericords, then perhaps enjoy sticky toffee pudding in the town where it originated.
