Kendal is a historic market town situated in Cumbria, in the heart of England's Lake District. Known historically as the "Auld Grey Town" due to its numerous buildings constructed from local grey limestone, Kendal has been an important settlement since medieval times.
The town developed as a center for wool trading, famously producing "Kendal Green," a hardwearing woolen cloth that was exported throughout Europe. Today, Kendal serves as a cultural hub for the South Lakes region, with its rich heritage reflected in its historic architecture, including the ruins of Kendal Castle which overlooks the town. The town maintains strong artistic and cultural traditions, hosting various festivals throughout the year and supporting several museums and galleries that showcase both local history and contemporary arts.
