Bed and breakfast in Kirkby Stephen |

 Bed and breakfast in Kirkby Stephen. The town of Kirkby
Stephen lies at the head of the Eden Valley. At 600ft, it is
the highest town on the River Eden and is strung out along its
Market Street. The Market Square has a number of buildings of
historical and architectural significance. The Cloisters were
built in 1810 between the Square and The Parish Church, with
the intention of providing shelter for churchgoers and market
people. Immediately through the Cloisters is the Trupp Stone,
where tithes were paid until 1836. From the Market Square, many
narrow winding passageways lead off, some lead down to Frank's
Bridge and the River Eden. There has been a market here since
King Edward III granted a market charter in 1361. A mile south
of Kirkby Stephen is a railway station, a stop along the scenic
Settle to Carlisle railway line. Kirkby Stephen is also on the
Cumbria Cycle Way and is the central point on Alfred Wainwright's
Coast to Coast walk-190 miles from St Bee's Head to Robin Hood's
Bay. Also see Kirkby Stephen &
