Croglin is a quiet picturesque fellside village between the Pennines and the River Eden, about {{convert|14|mi}} south-east of Carlisle. The surrounding land is used for agriculture, mainly sheep. A small river, Croglin Water, flows through the valley down into the River Eden. A village has existed in this location for a long time and may originally have been two separate hamlets. There has been a church on the current site since the Norman period, but the present building, dedicated to St. John the Baptist, was erected in 1878 to a design by J. Hewison of Edinburgh. There is a post office, which opens two mornings a week, and a pub, the Robin Hood. Because of its proximity to the Scottish borders, the village was often raided by the Border Reivers in the 15th century. The lower two stories of a pele tower still survive, incorporated into the house formerly known as Croglin Vicarage, now The Old Pele, a testament to that need for defence.[1] There is a tale of a vampire associated with the area. It has many versions, and some have accurate local details, many of which are available on other sites. A toy manufacturer, Croglin Toys, was set up in the village in 1980, but now operates from nearby Lazonby.[2] A small dairy in the area, Thornby Moor Dairy, founded in 1979, has developed a type of cheese made from ewe's milk, known as Croglin Cheese.[3] EtymologyThe name Croglin is[4] probably a compound of a Middle English word crōk, "bend", ultimately derived from Old Norse krókr, and OE hlynn, "torrent". " [5] Though the location of Croglin favours this explanation,[6] also possible is derivation from Brittonic crǖg, "abrupt/isolated hill"[6] and lïnn, "a pool" is also possible (c.f. Welsh crug-llyn).[6] See also
