KIRKBY-LONSDALE, (Westmorland) 182 cm. 231 mm. from London, is called Kirkby from the Bp. of Carlisle of that name, who
routed the Scots, and was, it is said, a native of it. It is a pretty large T. with a woollen mf. and a Mt. on Tu. It has
a fair Ch. and a good stone bridge over the Lone. From its Ch.-yard and the banks of the r. there is a very fine prospect
of the mountains at a vast distance, as well as of the course of the r. which abounds with salmon, trout, &c. and
provisions of all sorts are very cheap here. This T. gives the title of Visc. to the family of Lowther.
