Kendal is a small town in Cumbria, England. It is the largest town in the district of South Lakeland and the historic boundary of Westmorland and also the third largest town in the county of Cumbria (after Carlisle and Barrow-in-Furness). Kendal is today known largely as a centre for tourism and as the home of Kendal mint cake, its buildings constructed with the local grey limestone have earned it the nickname the Auld Grey Town.
