Welcome to Threlkeld's site.

If you got here direct, the parent site gives full navigation links

The community of Threlkeld comprises two small villages with hamlets and outlying farms.

The ancient village of Threlkeld nestles under Blencathra to the north of the River Glenderamackin and the Quarry Village (built in the 1880s) is under Clough Head on the south side of the river.

The Civil Parishes of Threlkeld and the adjoining St John's In the Vale are not the same as the ecclesiastical parishes. Threlkeld Quarry is in St John's civil parish, but in St Mary's Church parish

We have much to offer both residents and visitors. You will be very welcome to visit us for your holiday or short break.

You may have family connections and want to know more about the Village and its environs. We hope it (or a link to it) is here.

The Navigation bar will take you to other pages and you can e-mail Stuart Cresswell if you have comments, suggestions or questions.
