Under Crag

Under Crag is a farmhouse located in Dunnerdale with Seathwaite, dating back to the early 18th century. The building features rough cast stone rubble and a slate roof, with a south elevation that has two storeys and three bays. The central entrance plan includes a casement window in the first bay and a small casement window in the third bay on the ground floor. The first floor has sashed windows with vertical glazing bars and horns. To the left of the entrance, there is a lean-to outshut that was originally an outhouse, which has two half-glazed doors. The building has gable-end stacks, and the rear includes a lean-to outshut built into the slope of the hill, featuring three windows with small-paned fixed glazing, one of which has an opening light.

Inside, there is a spice cupboard door dated 1714, adorned with ornament and the initials "N & AW/IW/1714" (Walker). Under Crag is historically significant as the birthplace of Reverend Robert Walker, who was born in 1710 and served as the curate of Seathwaite for 67 years. He gained fame through Wordsworth's reference to him as 'Wonderful Walker' in his Duddon sonnets. The roof of the farmhouse was likely raised in the 19th century.
