Jack’s Corner

Alec Row

Craggy Dorothy Farrer's Spring Wood is made up of three separate areas of woodland: High Wood, Dorothy Farrer's Spring Wood and Beddard's Wood.

Spring is a great time to visit when bluebells carpet much of the woodland floor, and you can see patches of wild garlic, early purple orchids and the scarcer herb paris.

Potters Fell, Brunt Knott, Ulgraves

Potter Fell is a fell near the villages of Burneside and Staveley, Cumbria, England, reaching a maximum height of 1,400 feet (430 m) at Brunt Knott. Alfred Wainwright in his The Outlying Fells of Lakeland identifies four summits on Potter Fell: Brunt Knott, Ulgraves and two unnamed summits. There are a number of tarns on the fell, including Gurnal Dubs and Potter Tarn.

Kentmere Valley

If you head north out of Staveley along the Kentmere Road, you’ll reach the start of the Kentmere Valley. Although, most of the valley is not in Staveley with Ings itself, it is significant to our community. Not only is it the source of the River Kent, but it includes the horseshoe of high fells known as the Kentmere Round and the Kentmere reservoir.

In response to a public consultation Alec Row is being developed to incorporate a small car park, cardboard recycling and a small open space for visitors and residents to sit and enjoy.

The Big Meadow

The Big Meadow is situated between Windermere Road and Brow Lane. It almost reaches to the centre of the village and is an important focal space for the many buildings around its edge.

Craggy Woods

Dorothy Farrer’s Wood

Craggy Wood is a beautiful ancient woodland in Staveley. A mixed broadleaf wood, dominated by oak but with planting of beech and larch. There are some magnificent trees on the steep craggy slopes with an interesting range of mosses, liverworts and fungi and good views of the surrounding countryside.

Reston Scar, Staveley Cragg

Between Staveley and Ings is Reston Scar. If you want to take a scenic route from Staveley to Ings you can set off from Barley Bridge and skirt round the scar.

The summit of the cairn is at 834 feet (254 m) with views out over Ings, the Coniston Fells, the Sca Fells and the Langdale Pikes.

In his book The Outlying Fells of Lakeland, Alfred Wainwright describes the ascent of Reston Scar from Staveley and calls the fell "a fine place for a siesta on a sunny day".
