Established as an iron furnace in 1736, Nibthwaite Mills has a rich industrial history in the area until the end of the Second World War. It was then acquired in a derelict state in the 1980s and underwent a complete renovation and reconfi guration to create a beautiful home designed to enhance the wealth of original features, charming aesthetics and lovely views. The present owners took over around 12 years ago after searching for a tranquil holiday retreat; they fell in love with the picture perfect location and Nibthwaite Mills’ own 140m mill pond. The property has since been further updated to include a new kitchen, bathrooms and roof to both the house and garage. Along with the spacious accommodation that includes a kitchen with adjoining dining room and large living room, there are four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a large cellar running the length of the original mill which is great for storage and houses the original furnace. The terraced gardens run down to the mill pond and river, offering a selection of private and unique seating areas from which to enjoy this one of a kind, secluded setting. The 150 metres of river frontage also benefi ts from fi shing rights from the private banking that stretches between the river and the delightful mill pond. 8389610-print-Pages.indd 2 25/06/2019 15:47:02 8389610-print-Pages.indd 3 25/06/2019 15:47:02 Low Nibthwaite is a small rural community located on a private access lane off the East of Lake Road that runs alongside Coniston Water, famous for its connections with Donald Campbell, Arthur Ransome and John Ruskin. Just under a mile south of Coniston Water, it lies in the Crake Valley, a lovely peaceful , quiet and unspoilt area of the South Lakes. Charcoal House along with others in the little hamlet of Low Nibthwaite all served the iron smelting furnace at Nibthwaite Mills. The property overlooks the River Crake below and Coniston Old Man can be seen from the sitting room balcony. Readily accessible to the central lakes, the location is convenient for the market town of Ulverston (15 mins), the A590 trunk route leading to Kendal and the M6, and fast trains from Oxenholme (Kendal) reach London in 2½ hours. 8389610-print-Pages.indd 4 25/06/2019 15:47:03 The private drive leads onto a slate chipped parking area for two vehicles, continuing down to the attached single garage and cellar. The steps across the drive leads to a low maintenance area also owned by Nibthwaite Mills. The entrance door opens into a useful entrance porch with practical tiled floors. Setting the tone for this Grade II* listed home, glazed windows look down to the lower ground floor bedroom giving a glimpse of a large exposed stone wall and archway that was formerly the access for the carriages delivering charcoal to the furnace. 8389610-print-Pages.indd 5 25/06/2019 15:47:03 8389610-print-Pages.indd 6 25/06/2019 15:47:04 8389610-print-Pages.indd 7 25/06/2019 15:47:04 8389610-print-Pages.indd 8 25/06/2019 15:47:05 8389610-print-Pages.indd 9 25/06/2019 15:47:05 8389610-print-Pages.indd 10 25/06/2019 15:47:05 8389610-print-Pages.indd 11 25/06/2019 15:47:05 The master bedroom is located on the ground fl oor, a neatly presented space with views over the rear and a contemporary ensuite bathroom which has a separate large shower, Kohler Jacuzzi large sized bath and has extensive custom built-in storage and is fi nished with natural tiling to the fl oors and walls. The staircase continues down to the lower ground fl oor to the remaining three bedrooms. Bedroom 2, as seen from the entrance hall, features the original stone archway which makes for a striking feature. There is also a single bedroom with views over the rear presently utilised as a study and a fi nal double bedroom offering its own unique charm with an exposed stone wall and rear views. The contemporary bathroom is again fi nished with natural tiling to the fl oors and walls and includes a bath with shower over. 8389610-print-Pages.indd 12 25/06/2019 15:47:06 8389610-print-Pages.indd 13 25/06/2019 15:47:06 8389610-print-Pages.indd 14 25/06/2019 15:47:06 8389610-print-Pages.indd 15 25/06/2019 15:47:06 The private grounds of Nibthwaite Mills are a secluded haven that naturally attracts the local wildlife in abundance. Hidden seating areas are found across the gardens, interconnected by wrought iron bridges and steps that extend across to the mill pond to a raised patio above the River Crake. This is a great spot to make the most of the fi shing rights or you can take a stroll down the private banking that runs between the mill pond and river down to a private lock. The elevated decked terrace accessed from the dining area is the perfect vantage point to take in these stunning surrounds, with the gentle sounds of the river adding to the relaxing aesthetics. The natural shrubbery planting of the garden creates relatively low maintenance spaces ideal for those looking for a second home. Practically, there is parking for 3 vehicles on the drive that extends down to the attached single garage. Steps from within the garage lead down to the large cellar that runs the length of the original house. This is a great space for storage and also houses the original furnace of the mill. 8389610-print-Pages.indd 16 25/06/2019 15:47:07 8389610-print-Pages.indd 17 25/06/2019 15:47:07 Directions From the south turn off the A590 at Greenodd and proceed north on the A5902 for approximately 2 miles fork right towards Lowick/Coniston on the A5084 until you reach a small cross roads at Lowick Bridge.

In a similar move, the Institute of Geological Sciences, subsequently renamed the British Geological Survey (BGS), took over the national groundwater archive. Both IH and BGS are component bodies of the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). The BGS hydrogeologists are located with at Wallingford and close cooperation between the two groups has led, among other things, to the decision to publish a single series of yearbooks and reports dealing with nationally archived surface and groundwater data and the use made of them.

  • History of Holy Trinity, Colton
    - HOLY TRINITY CHURCH COLTON NOTES ON ITS HISTORY AND ENVIRONS The parish of Colton lies in that part of Cumbria which was known as High Furness (now South Lakeland) and though it is not generally thought of as being part of the English Lake District, it is yet near enough to that enchanting region to share some of the magic of its renowned beauty. The sterner and wilder aspects of Nature - high mountains, difficult passes, deep lakes, raging and tumultuous water falls are not here; these lie farther North. A glimpse, however, of what we may expect there is suggested if from Colton we look across the beautiful valley of the Crake coming from Coniston Water, to that noble group of mountains which includes the Old Man, Dow Crag and Wetherlam. Though this scene is less majestic and awe-inspiring than the more famous Cumbrian views, yet its loveliness delights the eye and seems to link our Colton panorama with the beginning of the true Lake District. We have around us, in this parish of Colton, scenery of a charm and variety which provides perpetual wonder and joy. There are fine stretches of fell country across which streams and becks innumerable make their picturesque courses to the rivers Leven and Crake, adding 'the beauty born of murmuring sound' to their visual attractions. The scenery is far more diversified than that of Low Furness and it has a varied and irregular surface of cheerful valleys, rocky but modest acclivities and hanging woods everywhere, clothing their sides, almost to their summits. Colton Church is set in a scene of such wonderful beauty that anyone approaching it for the first time might be forgiven if he compared the apparent insignificance of man's handiwork with the striking loveliness of surrounding Nature.

  • Colton Church Parish Newsletter, April 2020
    PASTORAL LETTER 10 Bobbin Mill Spark Bridge ULVERSTON LA12 8 BS April 2020 Dear friends How do you want to be remembered? This thought was prompted by a report I saw in a newspaper. A woman had been murdered and the only thing the journalist could use to illustrate the woman’s life, her legacy as it were, was, ‘she had trained Princess Anne’s dogs’. I would like to think there were other glorious achievein so we can oiffer our thankments of her life more worthy of mention in that three-inch column report. Above the head of Jesus on the cross on Good Friday was a board on which was written ‘King of the Jews’. This epitaph was ordered by Pontius Pilate, not as a declaration but rather an insult to those who had brought Jesus before him for sentencing. As Jesus died on the cross He uttered a sentence which showed the depth of His Love for us and the depth of our need for that Love. He said, “Forgive them Father for they do not know what they are doing”. His subsequent Resurrection revealed the power of such God-given forgiveness. However, the Lord’s word from on the cross is not His last word. His last word has yet to be spoken: His judgement upon the earth and all who have lived thereon has yet to come. When He Jesus returns, at a time appointed but yet to be fulfilled, there will be a gathering of all who are living and have lived and died on earth.

  • 2 the Landscape, Its Heritage and Its People
    RUSLAND HORIZONS Working a Lakeland Landscape 2 The Landscape, its Heritage and its People This chapter describes in detail the varied aspects of the Rusland Horizons landscape, looking at both its physical characteristics and its heritage assets. The first section provides an explanation of the area’s key features using the landscape character assessment approach. Sections 2.2 and 2.3 examine the natural heritage, including geology and biodiversity, and the cultural heritage of the area, looking at how these have developed over time. The final section describes the ecosystems services of the area and explores how the Landscape Partnership can contribute to the process of identifying and supporting these services. Figure 1: View from Rusland Heights. © T. Morris. In High Furness there is an irregular and romantic mixture of high craggy hills, deep glens, and verdant valleys, interspersed with brooks, rivers and lakes. Edward Baines (1824). The Antiquities of Furness. 2 The Landscape, its Heritage and its People Page: 24 RUSLAND HORIZONS Working a Lakeland Landscape 2.1 Landscape Character Landscape is not just the view. It is about the relationship between people and place. landscape character assessments provide a tool for identifying features that give a locality its 'sense of place' and pinpoint what makes it different from neighbouring areas. They provided a framework for describing an area in a systematic, value-free way and help land managers ensure that change can respect and enhance local character. The Rusland Horizons area is covered by Natural England’s National Character Areas Profile 19 Cumbria Low Fells and by the Landscape Character Assessment with Guidelines for the Lake District National Park.
