Over Kellet is a small, rural village and civil parish a few miles north of Lancaster in the district of Lancashire, England. Sitting on higher ground, it enjoys wide views towards Morecambe Bay and the distant Lakeland fells, and retains a quiet, agricultural character punctuated by stone cottages, hedgerows and narrow lanes.
The village has a long-established community centred on its parish church and village hall, with farming still important to the local economy alongside residents who commute into Lancaster and neighbouring towns. Nearby landmarks such as Capernwray Hall add a touch of local history and visitor interest, while the area’s mix of historic buildings and countryside make it popular with walkers and those seeking a rural lifestyle close to the coast.
