*************

Kirkby Lonsdale (pronounced /'k??bi? 'l?nzde?l/) is a small town in Cumbria, England, on the River Lune. It is situated thirteen miles (21 km) south-east from Kendal along the A65. The parish of Kirkby Lonsdale had a population of 1771 recorded in the 2001 census.[1]

Notable buildings include St Mary's Church, a Norman structure with fine carved columns. The view of the River Lune from the churchyard is known as Ruskin's View; it was praised by John Ruskin as "One of the lovliest views in England" and painted by J. M. W. Turner.

The town is famous as a motorbike enthusiast's meeting place; this happens every Sunday at Devil's Bridge.

A further feature of Kirkby Lonsdale is Queen Elizabeth School, a secondary school specialising in the performing arts, sports and languages. The school is situated on Biggins Road, and takes students from ages 11-18.

A two-day Victorian Fair is hosted in the town each September. The streets are closed to traffic and filled with traders' stalls, craft demonstrations and entertainment, while visitors are encouraged to wear Victorian dress.
