LOCATION
Keswick is one of the largest and main Lake District towns, drawing in visitors most of the year round. Whilst some of the Lake District towns are only bustling during the summer months, Keswick’s sectors tend to trade well most of the year.

The subject property is positioned at the centre of the town and close to the principal car park. Nearby occupiers include Sea Salt, Cotswold Outdoor, Mountain Warehouse, Weird Fish, The Round, and The King’s Arms Hotel. This is a popular section of the town for visitors parking and exploring the surrounding fells and the popular Keswick to Threlkeld walk. The building provides the start and finish point for the famous Bob Graham Round run.

The Moot Hall is a Grade II-listed building that was built in 1813. It is a detached three-storey traditional stone building with a pitched slate roof and a clock tower, which was refurbished in 2017. Internally, the ground floor offers an open plan sales area with storage at the rear. The first floor comprises a further sales area with offices and storage, accessed via an internal open staircase and a lift to the front. The rear of the property can be accessed via an external staircase and a separate entrance. The second floor, also with staircase and lift access, provides a community room/meeting room space, with a kitchen, WC and storage facilities.
