Map of the UK

Strickland Roger is a small, predominantly rural civil parish in the unitary authority of Westmorland and Furness, within the historic county of Westmorland in north‑west England. It sits a few miles east of Kendal on the fringe of the Lake District, characterised by rolling pasture, stone farmhouses and narrow lanes with open views towards nearby fells and woodland.

Historically the area has strong links with the Strickland family and with nearby Sizergh, and agriculture has long been its economic bedrock; today there is a mix of farming, commuters to Kendal and modest tourism spill‑over from the Lakes. The parish retains a quiet, close‑knit rural character, with historic buildings and countryside that attract walkers and those seeking country living rather than a busy high street life.
