In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Dalemain like this:
DALEMAIN, a seat in Dacre parish, Cumberland; at the confluence of the Dacre and the Eamont rivers, 3½ miles SW of Penrith. It was built in the time of William III.; belonged to the Laytons; and passed to the Hassells.
Dalemain is now part of WESTMORLAND AND FURNESS Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how WESTMORLAND AND FURNESS has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Dalemain itself, go to Statistics.
