Bassenthwaite is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Allerdale in Cumbria, England. The village is about 7 miles (11 km) east of Cockermouth, and is approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) from Bassenthwaite Lake. Containing just a single pub and no shops, it is largely an agricultural community, with two farms within the village itself, with a number of holiday homes. Boasting a Church of England Church (St John's) on its outskirts, together with a tiny Methodist chapel, it contains many elements of the archetypal English village including a green, primary school and a stream running through it.
Trafford Caravan Park is on Carlisle Road 6 miles (9.7 km) from the roundabout just outside Keswick. Bassenthwaite Village is at the foot of Skiddaw, one of the highest mountains in England at 3,054 feet (931 m). Robin Hood, Skiddaw, Ullock Pike, Longside Edge and Barf can be seen from the village.
'Bassenthwaite' is 'Bastun's clearing', pers.[onal] n.[ame] plus 'þveit' 'clearing', also 'common', 'lake'. The 1st el[ement] is usually taken to be the Anglo-French nickname or surname 'Bastun', originally meaning 'stick', while the 2nd is ON 'þveit' 'clearing'. The lake, in early times known as 'Bastun's water', takes its name from the village.
The church of St Bega is in fields near the lake, some distance away from the village, and was built about 950AD. It is a grade II* listed building, and is popular for weddings. It is the parish church of Bassenthwaite : St John's church was built later as a chapel of ease. The St Bega's Way walking route was described in a booklet published to raise funds for the church in 2008.

Illustrated oral history of Keswick to Penrith railway Cumberland, now Cumbria
In 1944 when this 16 years old applied to work on the Keswick to Penrith railway. The train was the main delivery service with parcels, mail and even live chickens - what a racket!
Oral history of Penrith to Keswick to Cockermouth railway. The recording was made in 1999 as part of the Voices of Cumbria Millennium project in which 177 oral history cassette tapes were illustrated by Peter Nicholson for display on one computer that was moved between libraries and community centres. In 2000 the Internet was not capable of displaying this multimedia! I was allowed to use 1700 images to illustrate the 177 oral histories. Now, in 2019, you can help by putting an oral histories onto a video making program (many are free) and adding appropriate photos from the collection.
Please visit to view images and video.

Bassenthwaite Reflections
Bassenthwaite Lake
Bassenthwaite Lake is one of the largest water bodies in the English Lake District. It is long and narrow, approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) long and 3⁄4-mile (1.2 km) wide, but is also extremely shallow, with a maximum depth of about 70 ft (21 m).
It is the only body of water in the Lake District to use the word lake in its name, all the others being waters (for example, Derwentwater), meres (for example, Windermere) or tarns (for example, Dock Tarn).( From Wikipedia)
I set off on a freezing cold morning to explore the Northern end of Bassenthwaite hoping to capture a sunrise. Skiddaw which dominates from the Eastern side had a white winter topping, still waiting for a proper fall of snow though............
