Matterdale Church.
Matterdale Church.

This dated beam inside the church has caused a little confusion. The carpenter has used capital X to denote hundreds so it may read 1573 or 1753, when alterations were made to the building. In all likelihood the beam is original and is sixteenth century.

A little further down stream the beck descends in spectacular fashion over Aira Force on its way to Ullswater.
