Who we are
The society was established in 1972, following a successful campaign to stop the demolition of a large part of Queen's Square for development.
Kirkby Lonsdale has an extremely distinguished architectural quality and practically the whole town centre is now a Conservation Area.
The Society's remit covers Kirkby Lonsdale and its wider Rainbow parish, which includes Barbon, Casterton, Hutton Roof, Lupton, Mansergh and Middleton.
