Burton-in-Kendal was in the County of Westmorland until Cumbria was created in 1974. Due to its position, the history of Burton in Kendal lies in transport as travellers used its many inns to eat, drink, and rest their pack horses before entering or leaving the County. The village has a rich local history. Kath Hayhurst has produced a fascinating book of photographs and annotations entitled "Burton in Kendal, Clawthorpe and Dalton – "Photographic Memories". Copies are available from the village shop or from the Holme and District Local History Society. The village of Burton-in-Kendal is situated ideally for access to the Lake District , the West Coast and to the East, the Yorkshire Dales and Howgill Fells . |
