Said to be
the second largest village in Britain,
Pilling boasts no fewer than five churches.
One of them, Old St John's is notable as
a 'time-warp' church, virtually unchanged since
its completion in 1717. Flagged floors,
pews and box-pews of unvarnished oak, and a
three decker pulpit have all survived unscathed
thanks to the building of a new church in the
village in 1887.
You can also find many places to visit, such
as...
Perhaps
the most unusual visitor attraction in Ambleside
is the Homes of Football, described by the
Sunday Times as a national treasure. It
began as a travelling exhibition of football
photographs and memorabilia, but now has a
permanent home in Lake Road. |
