When Patterdale Hall was built in 1796 for John Mounsey, the so-called 'King of Patterdale' and reputed miser, Dorothy disliked the colour of the exterior and so it was changed. Current day Patterdale is little changed and is still made up of only a handful of cottages, The white Lion pub, The Patterdale Hotel, a post office, village school, the firestation and the church.
