About

Dalston and Burgh ward encompasses a largely rural portion of the Carlisle City Council area in northern Cumbria. The landscape is dominated by agricultural land and the meandering course of the River Caldew, which flows north towards Carlisle. The ward includes the main village of Dalston, which functions as a significant local service centre with schools and shops for the surrounding farmland. The area's economy has long been connected to agriculture and local commerce.

The settlement pattern is one of scattered farms and smaller hamlets, like Buckabank, set within the flat river valley. The historic Dalston Railway Station, situated on the scenic Cumbrian Coast Line, provides a direct transport link. The ward's western boundary is marked by the M6 motorway, a major transport route through the region. This creates a distinct contrast between the quiet, working countryside and the constant movement of national traffic just beyond its edge.
