About

Aspatria ward covers the town of Aspatria and surrounding rural settlements in the northwestern part of Cumberland. The area is primarily agricultural, with a landscape of low fells and farmland. Historically, the local economy was centered on mining and the Aspatria Agricultural Cooperative Society, which was a significant early force in the British cooperative movement. The town itself functions as a service centre for the surrounding agricultural community.

The ward's geography includes the River Ellen and the northern slopes of the Ellen Valley. A notable local feature is the Aspatria Dream, a large hillside marking formed from white limestone. The settlement pattern is one of a central market town flanked by smaller villages like Hayton and Oughterside, with the A596 road providing a main transport link through the area towards Wigton and the Solway coast.
