Barbary Plains Cumbria Map

About Barbary Plains

Barbary Plains, a quiet hamlet in Cumbria, lies bathed in the soft, diffused light of the North West. It lies 3.6 km east-north-east of Penrith (from Penrith: bearing 77°T, OS grid NY 549 311), and is situated south-west of Edenhall village. The land here, a gentle sweep of green fields, hints at the ancient agricultural rhythms that have shaped it, the soil a dark, promising loam beneath the sky. The air often carries a faint, sweet scent, perhaps from the nearby hedgerows or the distant breath of the fells. Barbary Plains offers a stillness, a place where the wider world recedes, leaving only the immediate presence of the landscape and the quiet continuity of rural life. The distant murmur of the River Eden, though unseen, is a constant, low hum in the background of the hamlet’s existence.
