Cartmel Priory

Cartmel is a village in Cumbria, England, 2+14 miles (3.5 kilometres) northwest of Grange-over-Sands close to the River Eea. The village takes its name from the Cartmel Peninsula, and was historically known as Kirkby in Cartmel. The village is the location of the 12th-century Cartmel Priory, around which it initially grew. Situated in the historic county of Lancashire, since 1974 Cartmel has been part of the ceremonial county of Cumbria.

Whilst its history has been in its ecclesiastical and agricultural communities, Cartmel has since the mid-twentieth century developed as a minor tourist destination, being just outside the Lake District National Park.[1] Several attractions in the village, including Cartmel Racecourse and a Michelin-starred restaurant, cater to this tourist trade.
