Established in 1836, this traditional ironmongers & hardware shop contains a wealth of original features, from the 22 ft mahogany counter and all the drawers behind to the unusual counter made of keys. Go through the rear door & step back in time. See the workshop dating back to Georgian times, office and more. Great for adults & kids alike.

5. Dubwath Silver Meadows
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 36 reviews
Reviewed By FranW-haven - Whitehaven, United Kingdom
This is a well cared for nature reserve. Ideal for everyone and their pet dog(s) for a half hour walk. There's seating areas and little 'stop off' stations of interest with educational information for children and adults alike. All for Free! As the site is flat, they've designed the reserve, using recycled plastics, to make the wetland area accessible with raised boardwalks. This is also perfect for anyone with a wheelchair or children's buggy to spend quality time alongside nature, just off the main A66, beside the old coaching inn; The Pheasant Inn frequented by William Wordsworth etc... Silver Meadows is one or our favourite places to visit with our pet collie.
