Egton with Newland is a largely rural civil parish in Westmorland and Furness, on the southern fringe of the Lake District and within easy reach of Morecambe Bay and the Furness peninsula. The area is made up of scattered villages and hamlets set among farmland and wooded valleys, with the market town of Ulverston close by and plenty of footpaths that attract walkers and birdwatchers.
Once touched by the wider industrial history of Furness, particularly iron and slate working, the parish economy today is largely agricultural with a steady contribution from local tourism and commuters. Community life revolves around parish churches, village halls and local clubs, and the mix of historic farmhouses, small-scale conservation projects and easy access to Lakeland scenery gives it a quiet, traditional character popular with residents and visitors alike.
