The 13th/14th century tunnel-vaulted pele tower is the main feature of the collection of buildings at Kentmere Hall. Those to the east of the tower according to Wikipedia, 'show signs of many building phases'.

Upper Kentmere

At this time of the year, the sun soon dips behind the range of fells that bound the Kentmere valley. These pastures are the highest in the dale and are about to be cast into shadow.

The footpath to Tongue House and upper Kentmere

Tongue House is the rather grand name for the barn which sits below Tongue Scar, the rocky spur which divides upper Kentmere from Ullstone Gill. Dominating the upper dale are the conical peaks of Ill Bell and Froswick.
