Kirkoswald Village Centre

Highlight • Settlement

Kirkoswald means the "Church of St Oswald" who was the king of Northumbria.
Now this pretty little market town is a nice stop in the Eden Valley.
The Crown Inn is good with traditional pub food, drinks and snacks. It's normally open 10:30 to 11:00 but opens a bit later Tuesday and Wednesday and closed on Monday.
The community village shop is a good place for a mid-ride re-supply. It's open 8:00 - 17:00 every day apart from Sunday when it shuts at 13:00.
