In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Nether Kellet like this:
KELLET (NETHER), a township in Bolton-le-Sands parish, Lancashire; 5 miles N by E of Lancaster. Acres, 2, 018. Real property, £2, 659. Pop., 284. Houses, 54. Dunald-Mill-Hole here is a curious stalactitic cavern, forming the commencement of a natural tunnel, which extends nearly 3 miles to the vicinity of Carnforth. A stream turns a mill adjacent to the cavern, and then traverses the tunnel.
Nether Kellet is now part of LANCASTER District. Click here for graphs and data of how LANCASTER has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Nether Kellet itself, go to Statistics.
