Plumbland is a small village in the historic county of Cumberland (now within Cumbria) in north‑west England. It sits on the edge of the Solway Plain with easy access to the Lake District National Park, so the landscape mixes lowland farmland with nearby fells and coastal scenery.
Locally the village retains classic stone cottages and a quiet, agricultural character, with farms, a village hall and a handful of small businesses; tourism linked to walking, cycling and rural pursuits brings occasional custom. Its history is that of many Cumbrian settlements - long‑standing rural traditions, parish life and a close‑knit community shaped by the surrounding landscape.
