Cumbria

Cumbria is a non-metropolitan county in North West England. The county and Cumbria County Council, its local authority, came into existence in 1974 after the passage of the Local Government Act 1972. Cumbria's county town is Carlisle to the north, and the only other major urban area is Barrow-in-Furness on the south-western tip of the county.

The largest and most widespread industry in Cumbria is tourism. The Lake District National Park alone receives some 15.8 million visitors every year.
