A pub on the A683 south of Sedbergh. Named as the Railway Tavern, a 'beer house', on the 1899 map. There was a railway station nearby on the Ingleton and Tebay line until passenger services ceased in 1931, but the fact that the tavern was several hundred metres away suggests it pre-dates the opening of the railway in 1861.
