High Furness is a ward in the Westmorland and Furness area, covering a largely rural part of the southern Lake District. It includes villages such as Hawkshead, Coniston, and Broughton-in-Furness, surrounded by fells, woodlands, and lakes. The area is known for its historic connections to the Wordsworths and Beatrix Potter, with many traditional stone buildings and farmland shaping the landscape.
The ward features a mix of tourism, agriculture, and small local businesses. Coniston Water and Grizedale Forest provide outdoor recreation opportunities, while Hawkshead attracts visitors with its historic school and cobbled streets. The ward has a sparse population, with communities spread across scattered settlements. Transport links are limited, with winding country roads connecting the villages to larger towns like Ulverston and Kendal.
