Sedbergh
Sedbergh is a town as well as civil parish in Cumbria, England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, it lies concerning 10 miles (16 kilometres) eastern of Kendal, 28 miles (45 km) north of Lancaster and also concerning 10 miles (16 kilometres) north of Kirkby Lonsdale. The community sits just within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Sedbergh is at the foot of the Howgill Fells on the north bank of the River Rawthey which joins the River Lune concerning 2 miles (3 km) below the community. The parish falls in the electoral ward of Sedbergh and Kirkby Lonsdale. This covers both towns and also bordering areas with a complete population taken at the 2011 Census of 6,369. Sedbergh has a narrow primary road lined with stores. From all angles, the hills rising behind your houses can be seen. Until the coming of the Ingleton Branch Line in 1861, these remote areas were reachable only by walking over some fairly high hills. The line to Sedbergh railway station ranged from 1861 to 1954. The civil church covers a huge location, including the hamlets of Millthrop, Catholes, Marthwaite, Brigflatts, High Oaks, Howgill, Lowgill and Cautley, the southerly part of the Howgill Fells and the western part of Baugh Fell. George Fox, a founder of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), talked in the cemetery of St. Andrew's Church (which he called a "steeple residence") as well as on close-by Firbank Fell during his travels in the North of England in 1652. Briggflatts Meeting House was constructed in 1675. It is the namesake of Basil Pennant's long rhyme Briggflatts (1966 ). Sedbergh School is a co-educational boarding college in the town, while Settlebeck School is its major state-funded secondary school.
