"Patterdale belonged formerly to the barons of Kendale, one tenement excepted, which is now the property of John Mounsey, Esq; of Patterdale Hall. Accordingly we find in Hartsop Hall in Patterdale, the same armorial bearings as in Barton Church, viz. three stags heads, which Guillim says were the bearing of the name of Faldo, in the county of Kent. After some alienations by marriage, the manors of Pless-Fell in Patterdale, Barton, Griesdale, and Martindale, were purchased of Barbara and Anne, the daughters of the Earl of Sussex, by Sir William Musgrave. The whole Dale consists at present of five small manors; Hartsop, the property of the Earl of Lonsdale; Deep-Dale, of the Duke of Norfolk; Griesdale and Pless-Fell, of William Hassel, Esq; of Dalemain; and Glenridding, of John Mounsey, Esquire."
"Patterdale is called in the Bishop's register Patrickdale, which is probably its proper name; the corruption being very easy, and the church being dedicated to St Patrick, makes it still more probable. A little below the Hall is a well called St Patrick's Well, ..."

"Patterdale, though now the poorest place that I am acquainted with, was once the seat of peace and plenty. Almost every man had a small freehold, whose annual produce, (though perhaps not equal to the daily expenditure of the rich and gay,) not only maintained him and his family in a comfortable manner, but even enabled many among them to amass small sums of money. The scene is now changed; vice and poverty sit pictured in almost every countenance, and the rustic fireside is no longer the abode of peace and contentment. The lamentable change took place about thirty years ago: at that time some lead mines wre (sic) wrought in this Dale, ..."

"Foxes we have not many, owing to the pains the shepherds take to destroy them: of their cunning it is unnecessary to say any thing, ... Some foxes run when hunted a long time, others not so much, as some hares. A remarkable instance of one I shall here give the reader: A farmer of the Duke of Norfolk's in Patterdale, went out one Saturday afternoon a shepherding, his hound dog (Mountain) followed him, and upon a mountain-side unkenneled a fox; this was about two o'clock, and the farmer being busy did not pursue them; the dog did not return home that evening, nor was heard of till next day; when, as the people were coming out of the church (Patterdale) the dog was just passing it, hardly ever giving mouth, and the fox was about forty yards before him; he made shift to get half a mile further, when he run into a garden and laid him down under a gooseberry tree; the dog was so fatigued that he lay down beside him, without offering to lay hold of him, and a man with a pitch-fork killed the fox: they afterwards heard that the dog and fox had been at Rydal, and on the Saturday evening at Wythburn, and at Legberthwaite on the Sunday morning; they must therefore have run twenty hours, which at ten miles an hour is 200 miles: but I am willing to believe that they run many more miles, as when seen at the different places the dog was never far behind him, for no one of those who saw them ever gave an account of them being more than three or 400 yards distant. The dog was a very swift one, and when they passed Patterdale church they were above a footman's pace, yet all ran from the church, men, women, and children. The owner of the dog is still living, his name is Anthony Thompson: when that dog grew old, he never run with the other hounds after a fox was unkenneled, but took a road of his own, was generally in at the death, and often had killed the fox before the other dogs came up, unless the fox run directly to his holds."

page 129  "[written 1805] ... In the rebellion of the year 1745, people fled with their valuables from the open country to Patterdale, as a place of refuge secure from the incursions of strangers. At that time, news such as we heard [Battle of Trafalgar] might have been long in penetrating so far into the recesses of the mountains; but now, as you know, the approach is easy, and the communication, in summer time, almost hourly; nor is this strange, for travellers after pleasure are become not less active, and more numerous than those who formerly left their homes for purposes of gain. The priest on the banks of the remotest stream of Lapland will talk familiarly of Buonaparte's last conquests, and discuss the progress of the French revolution, having acquired much of his information from adventurers impelled by curiosity alone. ..."

The village of Patterdale, which is situated on a rising ground, and one or two white farm-houses, peep out from among trees, beneath scowling mountains, with corn and meadow land sloping gently in front to the Lake, and here and there a scattered grove. Patterdale, or Patrick's-dale, takes its name from the baptisms, which are reported to have been here performed by that Saint, about fourteen hundred years ago: its truly pastoral valley is watered by the river Coldrill, which contributes to replenish the Lake. Nothing can surpass the verdure of its inclosures, which are unhappily exposed to frequent inundations, and have sometimes been under water half the season. ..."

"THE View here represented is taken from the Edge of Martindale-Fell, looking over a Bay of the Lake, directly into Patterdale, where the Chapel and Palace are conspicuous. The Mountains seen in the Distance belong to the same Chain with Helvellyn. These Hills having their Summits sharp and pointed resemble more the Alpine Forms than any which are to be met with in this Country. It is worthy of Remark that in any one Range or System of Mountains a great Similarity of Outline generally prevails; the same Strata perhaps, by whatever Cause the Inequalities of the Earth's Surface might have been produced, naturally disposing themselves into the same or similar Forms."
