Bowling Fell

Bowling Fell is situated on Kendal Heights and is close to the town centre car parks and Beast Banks.

Bowling Fell is the site of Kendal's first castle, the remnants of the bailey and motte are still there today at what is known as Castle Howe. An obelisk was put in place in 1788 to commemorate the Glorious Revolution of 1688.

Kendal Civic Society believe that Bowling Fell was Kendal's first official park and was used as a bowling green for a game that would be similar to boules. It is a scheduled monument of historic importance and offers excellent views of the Kendal skyline.
