Bega was the daughter of an Irish chieftain who fled to England to escape being married to a Norse prince. She landed in St Bees and lived as a hermit. She then journeyed to Northumbria, possibly via Bassenthwaite Lake where St Bega's church can be found.

Two long-distance trails between St Bees and Bassenthwaite Lake, St Bega's Way and St Bega's Way Back, pay homage to her journey. The former starts at the nearby priory and the latter ends there.

West Cumberland Railway Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

A collection of local Cumbrian railway artefacts and social history from the 1840s to the present day. It’s a diverse group of items that should have something to interest everyone – totems, nameplates, posters, lamps, carriage prints, signalling equipment, maps, enamel & cast iron signs and much more (extract from stbees.org.uk/home/visitors/travel/train-2/railway-museum/). The museum's Facebook page contains a wealth of information, including dates and times when steamers will cross the Cumbrian Coast Line: facebook.com/West-Cumberland-Railway-Museum-1082018475225883
