Map of the UK

Cummersdale is a village and civil parish in Cumberland, England, situated just a few miles south of Carlisle. It sits on the edge of low-lying agricultural countryside, giving a mix of rural views and convenient access to the city, so many residents combine farming or local employment with commuting to Carlisle for work and services.

The village retains a modest historic character with traditional stone buildings and evidence of a nineteenth-century industrial past in the form of small quarries and lime-burning activity. Today the local economy is a blend of agriculture, light industry and small businesses, while community life centres on the church, village hall and occasional local events that reflect a close-knit parish atmosphere.
