Pendragon Castle on the banks of the River Eden Nights at Pendragon Castle: I spelled it out over the phone but she must have misheard. Knights at Pendragon Castle, read the proof-poster for my talk at Kendal Library. Oh well! That’s the risk you take with a whacky title, it’s evocative in a way you did not intend. Pendragon Castle sits on the banks of the River Eden, not far from its source. Wild Boar Fell rises to the south-west with the dramatic bluff of Mallerstang to the east. These are fells I love and I go there whenever I can, often setting out from Pendragon Castle. Meeting there, you wouldn’t want to spend the night. It’s a romantic ruin, its structure unsound so warning notices advise you to keep out.
