About Little Langdale
Little Langdale is a hamlet of a few scattered stone houses and a pub in the Little Langdale valley. Separated by the Lingmoor Fells from Great Langdale, it can be reached by a narrow, twisting road that passes by Blea Tarn.
Little Langdale was home to the notorious 19th-century smuggler Lanty Slee. Slee had many stills for distilling moonshine whisky hidden in caves and quarries around the area, including one in a cave in Moss Rigg quarry and transported the liquor over Wrynose and Hardknott to Ravenglass.
