*************
Little Salkeld is a small village within the Eden district of Cumbria, England, a few miles to the north east of Penrith and within the parish of Hunsonby.
Little Salkeld Watermill, built in 1745, is a traditional English 18th Century water mill.[2][3] It is Cumbria's only watermill still in full operation. Its organic bread and all-purpose flours are available in specialist shops throughout the UK. It operates regular tours and has an award winning[4] organic vegetarian cafe.
Salkeld Hall is the village's largest house; built in the 16th century incorporating earlier walls.[5] It is privately owned.
The village contains a vicarage but no church - it was built for Addingham parish church 1 mile to the north near Glassonby.
Popular with walkers it is the closest village to Lacy's Caves and Long Meg and Her Daughters.
Little Salkeld can be reached by car 1.5 miles from Langwathby off the A686, approximately 6 miles from M6 J40.
It lies on the C2C Cycle Route.
Little Salkeld railway station on the Settle-Carlisle Railway and branch line to the Long Meg Mine were both closed in the 1970s, although the disused platforms still remain and the station building is well maintained as a private house. The closest station is Langwathby.
In 1918 a train accident in nearby Long Meg Cutting killed seven people.
The village is believed to have been connected at one time by a bridge over the River Eden to Great Salkeld.
