story:-  
The parish has a charity known as the Charirity of the Beggar's Breeches.
In 1799 a beggar was rescued from the fells after a frost; he was lying in the snow, and found by Mr Robinson, partner in the cotton mill at Backbarrow. The man was taken to a lodging house and attended by Mr Brockbank, a surgeon. He was revived with tea laced with gin, and complained of poverty, saying he was on his way to see his son at Condergreen. A few days later he died from the exposure. In his breeches there were 185 guineas from his begging, together with a false medical certificate and a gall stone. Advertisments in local journals failed to identify him. There being no next of kin the money was put to the use of the local poor.
