South Cumbria Low Fells, Upland and Upland Fringe

Author(s): Jeremy Lake

This area is located to the south of the central core of the Lake District. Its gentle pastoral landscape provides a contrast with the more dramatic Cumbria High Fells to the north. Of the area, 75.9% is countryside and just over half (53.4%) is within the Lake District National Park. There are relatively small areas of land which are commons or designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs), and 15.8% of the area is wooded.
