The Fleece Inn Yard

Home of the Westmorland Gazette Offices as well as a wide variety of shops including

Hadwins Electrical an old established Kendal business,

and Booths Supermarket.

the Quiggins Kendal Mint Cake Factory.

the Market Place.

Kendal was honeycombed with yards in the past, but many were destroyed in a bid to "upgrade" the town centre in the 1970s, but some survive to this day and many are well

worth a visit. The picture above shows Yard 51 in Stramongate, one of the smaller yards,

but quite pretty thanks to the efforts of the residents in the three houses that form the top part of the yard .
