Welcome to the website of the parish and village of Bampton, which encapsulates the surrounding areas of Bampton Grange, Burnbanks, Butterwick, Rosgill and Knipe. This website is a resource for the residents as well as tourists, who come to view the outstanding natural beauty of our lake district setting.
Community Pub
Now is the time to 'Save a Pub for Bampton Valley' by acquiring and restoring 'The Mardale' under community ownership. This is a 'one-off' opportunity to secure our rural heritage for the long term benefit of Valley residents and our visitors - we must not let it pass us by. By buying Shares of value between £100 and £10,000+, we will become equal members of the BVCP Community Benefit Society (CBS). We hope there will be hundreds of us in the CBS. This Share Offer has been awarded a 'Community Shares Standard Mark' to confirm that it meets national standards of good practice. The Offer comprises various documents including a Share Prospectus and a Business Plan, and are online at www.bvcp.info/invest. We are very happy to get a paper Share Prospectus or paper application forms to you. Please call ASAP on 01931 338754 or email prospectus@bvcp.info. Shares will be available to buy during February for up to a month commencing Wednesday February 2nd 7PM at the Share Launch Meeting in Bampton Memorial Hall. The meeting will also be broadcast as a webinar using the link: www.tinyurl.com/mcj34nas A local recipe booklet from the Community Support Group will soon be available from the Village Shop. In addition to the recipes, it is full of photographs of local interest. So, in addition to giving you some new ideas to try, it could make an ideal present. Any profits from the book will be shared between the Bampton Memorial Hall and Hospice at Home, Carlisle and North Lakeland.
