Martindale is a valley and civil parish in Cumbria, England, situated within the Lake District National Park between the lakes of Ullswater and Haweswater. The valley is served by a narrow minor road which runs as far as the farm of Dale Head. ==Description== Martindale runs for approximately nine km in a north to south direction, it is a remote and thinly populated valley which has a permanent population of only about 50 residents.〔( English Lakes website. ) Gives population of valley as "about 50 permanent residents"..〕 The foot of the valley is located at the small hamlet of Sandwick on the western shore of Ullswater, while its head is situated on the slopes of Rampsgill Head where the headwaters of Howegrain Beck rise at a height of around 700 metres above sea level. The upper part of the valley is divided into two branches by the fell of The Nab, these two sub valleys named Bannerdale and Rampsgill contain the streams of Bannerdale Beck and Rampsgill Beck which meet at a point midway down Martindale to form Howegrain Beck which then becomes the main watercourse for the lower part of Martindale and enters Ullswater at Sandwick.〔( Landscape Heritage. ) Gives general details of Martindale.〕〔''"Wainwright In The Valleys Of Lakeland"'', Alfred Wainwright, Page 69, ISBN 0-7181-3481-8, Gives general description of Martindale.〕 Just before reaching Sandwick, Martindale is joined by the side valley of Boredale, which enters from the south.
