Nether Wasdale is a village in Cumberland, located in the Wasdale valley, near the River Irt and just over a mile to the west of the Wastwater lake.

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]
