About the village
The main church in Nether Wasdale is St Michaels and All Angels Church, which was built in the 16th century.[1]
The church has a maypole in front of it: now a listed structure, it was built originally to celebrate Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee. Nether Wasdale contains the hotels the Screes Inn,[2] the Strands Hotel[3] and Low Wood Hall.[4]
