Bowling Green Hotel

"At the top of Beast Banks, just after the entrance to Bowling Fell stands a large house, that was once the Bowling Green Hotel. This offered accommodation, stabling for ten horses and other outhouses and was so extensive the owner had built three cottages on adjoining land. Although it may seem strange to have a hotel on top of Beast Banks, this was once the main route to Ulverston and the west. The Bowling Green closed around 1916."
