About

Kendal North & Burneside encompasses residential neighbourhoods on the northern fringe of the historic market town, extending into the Kent Valley. The area includes the large village of Burneside, with its own distinct centre, and the surrounding rural parishes. Development here is a mix of post-war housing estates, older stone-built terraces, and scattered farms. The landscape is defined by the River Kent and the steep, wooded slopes of the southern Lake District fells, which rise immediately to the north and west.

The area's economy has historically been linked to the river's power. Burneside is home to James Cropper PLC, a long-established paper mill that continues to operate on its original site, utilising the local water supply. The Settle-Carlisle railway line runs through the area, with a station at Burneside providing a direct link to Kendal and beyond. Footpaths follow the riverbanks and lead into the fells, connecting the communities to the surrounding countryside.
