St. Patrick's Well - Glenridding - Ullswater.
Care needed when visiting, situated on a busy main road the A592.
Patterdale once went under the name of St. Patrick's Dale.
The story has it that in the mid fifth century St. Patrick travelled through the area and baptised a few folk. In response to local pressure the present day St. Patrick's well was constructed just across the road from St. Patrick's Boat Hire, south of Glenridding. The Ullswater Way footpath goes just above the well in the picture.
