Keswick Attractions

 
From Patterdale a very attractive road runs past the Great Mell Fell (1,760ft/537m) to Keswick, one of the most popular Lake District centers (pop. 5,000). The town lies on the River Greta, close to Derwentwater, in the middle of a beautiful range of hills, where according to Arthurian legend Sir Gawain came across the green knight. Keswick offers cycling, climbing and walking opportunities, as well as golf and water sports.

There is an interesting town hall. Greta Hall, now part of the local school, was the home of Coleridge and later of Southey. Further information is available from the Fitz Park Museum.
