Applethwaite is a village in the foot hills of Skiddaw near Keswick in the English Lake District. The name derives from it originally being the clearing in a forest with apples in it.

The church

St Marys church in the village is plain with some stained glass windows. The other church here is St John the Evangelist.

Location

Applethwaite is just off the A591, one mile north of Keswick. Or a short wander over the vales and dales from Grasvegas.
