Lambrigg Fell
Lambrigg Fell is a hill, the highest point of the area of high ground between Kendal and the M6, in south-eastern Cumbria, England. It lies just outside the area normally defined as the Lake District, and certainly the hill is not in the same mould as the nearby Lakeland fells, being a sprawling, grassy moorland. For this reason, it is not nearly as popular as its subsidiary top to the west, Benson Knott, which overlooks Kendal.

South Westmorland Rural District
South Westmorland was a rural district in Westmorland, England from 1894 to 1974.

The district was merged in 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972 to form part of the South Lakeland district of Cumbria.
