About

Low Furness occupies a central position on the Furness Peninsula, characterised by a mix of agricultural land, small woodlands, and scattered settlements. The area's landscape is defined by low limestone hills and a indented coastline along Morecambe Bay. The ward includes several villages such as Lindal-in-Furness and the historic market town of Ulverston, which serves as a primary hub.

Local geography is notably shaped by the presence of Birkrigg Common, an area of open access land with ancient stone circles. Economic activity has traditionally been linked to farming and small-scale industry, with the coast supporting some fishing and tourism. The ward maintains a distinct identity separate from the more heavily industrialised areas to the east.
