About

Kirkby Stephen and Tebay ward encompasses a significant portion of the Upper Eden Valley within the Westmorland and Furness unitary authority. The area is defined by its agricultural character and its position as a key transit route, with the M6 motorway and West Coast Main Line running through the Tebay Gorge. The market town of Kirkby Stephen serves as the central hub, providing essential services for the surrounding rural communities and farmlands.

The landscape is predominantly pastoral, with the River Eden flowing through the valley. A notable feature is the presence of the Tebay Services, a family-run motorway service station renowned for its local produce and upland setting, which is distinct from typical roadside stops. The geology includes limestone outcrops, and the western fringes rise towards the remote fells of the Howgill range, marking the boundary with the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
