About

Appleby and Brough ward covers a large, primarily rural area in the eastern Eden Valley. It includes the historic market town of Appleby-in-Westmorland and the smaller settlement of Brough. The landscape is defined by the River Eden and the surrounding fells, with agriculture being a central feature of the local economy. The area maintains a quiet, traditional character centred around its market towns and villages.

A key landmark is Appleby Castle, a Norman fortress with later medieval additions that overlooks the town. The ward is notably traversed by the A66 trans-Pennine route, a major transport link. The famous Appleby Horse Fair, while a significant annual event, occurs temporally rather than defining the everyday environment, which is more focused on farming and local community life.
