3About Keldhead
Keldhead lies in Cumbria's Eden Valley, easily reached via the A592 from Junction 40 of the M6 near Penrith. The village sits between the Lake District fells and Pennine foothills, with the B5320 providing a scenic route to nearby Pooley Bridge and Ullswater. Around 15 fast EV chargers serve the area, supporting both locals and Lake District visitors. The name derives from Old Norse, meaning "spring head," reflecting its position near the headwaters of becks flowing into Ullswater.
