Ravenstown

Ravenstown is a settlement in the Lower Holker parish of the Cartmel Peninsula in Cumbria, England.

Ravenstown lies south of the larger village of Flookburgh and was historically part of Lancashire.

Ravenstown was built to serve an airship station for Vickers of Barrow-in-Furness after it was decided that Walney Airfield was deemed too vulnerable to attack from German U-boat attack so a new Airship station was constructed on a site which is now Cark Airfield.

Ravenstown is part of the Westmorland and Lonsdale Constituency whose member of parliament is Tim Farron of the Liberal Democrats.

The local newspapers covering Ravenstown are the North-West Evening Mail, The Westmorland Gazette and the free Grange Now.
