Crosby Garrett is a small village and civil parish in Westmorland and Furness, set in the rolling farmland of the Eden Valley on the western fringe of the Pennines. The settlement is characteristically Cumbrian, with stone-built houses, drystone walls and surrounding limestone fells; it sits within easy reach of the A66 and the market towns of Kirkby Stephen and Appleby-in-Westmorland, making it a quiet base for walkers and countryside visitors.
Locally the economy is dominated by hill farming and small-scale rural enterprises, but the parish punches above its weight historically thanks to a high-profile archaeological find: a decorated Roman cavalry helmet discovered nearby in 2010. The community remains small and close-knit, and the landscape – including Crosby Garrett Fell – draws walkers and anyone interested in pastoral Cumbrian life and history.
