About

The Egremont North and St Bees ward lies on the western edge of the Lake District National Park, characterised by a mix of coastal and rural landscapes. The area includes the coastal village of St Bees, known for its long shingle beach and the start of the Coast to Coast walking route. Inland, the terrain rises towards the fells, with farmland and small settlements. The historic market town of Egremont provides a commercial centre for the northern part of the ward.

A notable geological feature is the red sandstone cliffs at St Bees Head, the most westerly point of Cumbria. The ward's economy has traditionally been linked to mining and agriculture, with evidence of this industrial past visible in the landscape. The area is served by the Cumbrian Coast railway line, which connects its communities. Local life centres on village institutions and the natural environment, from the coastal paths to the inland valleys.
