*************

Appleby-in-Westmorland is a town and civil parish in Cumbria, in North West England. It is situated within a loop of the River Eden and has a population of 3,048. ^[1] It is in the historic county of Westmorland, of which it was the county town.

The town's name was simply Appleby, until the local government changes of 1974. When a successor parish was formed for the former borough of Appleby, the council effected a change in the town's name, to preserve the historic county's name.^[2]

St Lawrence's Church is the parish church. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building.^[3] Appleby Castle was founded by Ranulf le Meschin at the beginning of the 12th century. It was placed under siege during the Second English Civil War, during which Thomas Harrison was wounded.^[4]
