Civil Parishes in Cumbria

Civil parishes are the lowest tier of local government in England. There are 265 civil parishes in Cumbria, though some urban areas are unparished, or may come under a Town Council. Boundaries of civil parishes often change over time, however many of the parishes in Cumbria relate back to the 'ancient parishes' of Cumberland, Westmoorland and parts of Lancashire, before Cumbria was created in 1974. There are also links to historic buildings () in the respective parishes. Parishes vary in size (the population numbers below are from 2011). The information below on settlements within parishes is a 'work in progress'. Hint: use the 'Search' below to find places.
