Passing Kendal Parish Church / the Ring O' Bells Pub

 Soon after getting off the bus in Kendal (from Windermere), we found ourselves crossing a bridge:

And coming across Holy Trinity Parish Church, which (almost) looks like a cathedral:

Have just read that the church dates back to the early 13th century, being built on the site of an earlier Anglo-Saxon church.

A stone's throw away, we saw the Ring O' Bells pub:

Of which, I've just read was built on consecrated land (presumably that of the Parish Church) in the 17th century.

Thus, we could quickly see that walking round Kendal was going to be a highly interesting experience.
