This unofficial title dates back to Victorian years when a landlady of the Inn found her ducks lying stretched out in the road and concluded that they were dead.
Thriftily she began to pluck and prepare them for dinner. The ducks however, were "quick" and not dead. Down in the cellar a barrel had slipped its hoops and beer had gradually drained from the floor into the duck's customary feeding ditch. Thereupon the ducks made all too good use of their unexpected opportunity, with the result that when they came to they found themselves plucked and halfway to the oven.
Reported to be one of the best pub/food places in Cumbria

One needs a big appetite when eating in this pub. The meals are very generous and are very tasty, one does not want to leave a scrap but it is almost impossible not too. Their own brewed beer, Bitter End Ale is very tasty too, nice and smooth. A very friendly warm welcoming pub. They also have their own mini brewery on site, worth a look.

The Crashing Wave display is one no one will forget. Intermittently, a wave crashes down onto the rocks of the display. This provides an ideal home for species such as Sea-Bass who love to be amongst the choppy waves. These waves also pull oxygen into the water allowing the fish to keep happy & healthy. This display is also home to Turbot who subtly blend into the bed of the tank and large lobsters that burrow away in corners and between rocks! The Shark & Ray Pool is a great display of native shark & skate species as well as Wrasse, Turbot, Plaice & even a couple of Conger Eels hiding within the rocks! The Rays are very sociable and will often come up to the surface to get some attention.

Jennings Brewery was founded in the village of Lorton (situated between Keswick and Cockermouth) in 1828 by John Jennings (1783 – 1876), son of William Jennings (1751 – 1848) who was a Malster by trade.
Some oral traditions claim the original brewery in Lorton was either at Scales or High Swinside. Certainly John Jennings (Snr.) lived and farmed at Scales. He also bought High Swinside in 1845, but more probably the brewery first operated in buildings near to the present Lorton Village Hall which was originally built as a malthouse
John's son, John Jennings Junior (1813 – 1889) was certainly involved in his father's business, but by 1851 John Junior's business was described in the census as

Paul Currie, the original founder of the Lakes Distillery, is a man with whisky in his blood. So it is hardly surprising that he might dream about it.
This is the story of a dream come true (not that it was an easy task!). Our vision is to create one of the leading malt spirits in the world, alongside offering one of the most unique visitor experiences in the Lake District. From a Victorian cattle farm to a world-class production facility of quality spirits, the creation of this unique venue was truly a labour of love.
Every detail has been carefully constructed to support the dream - from the restoration of the buildings through to the technology and hardware used to create the spirits.
