Angerton is a very small, sparsely populated civil parish in Westmorland and Furness, in the ceremonial county of Cumbria in north‑west England. Rather than a single village it consists of scattered stone farmsteads, winding country lanes, patches of moorland and the familiar drystone walls that characterise the rural landscape here.
Economically and historically the area has been shaped by pastoral farming, particularly sheep husbandry, and the surviving buildings and field patterns still reflect that agricultural tradition. The local community is small and quiet, with residents relying on nearby market towns for services, and the parish is appreciated for its peaceful walking country and sense of remoteness.
