Beaumont (pronounced locally as bee-mont) is a village and civil parish in the Cumberland district of Cumbria, England.

Visible from the church are the Solway Firth and Scotland to the north; the Lake District, Carlisle and the Pennines to the east.

[8] The building is constructed from squared and coursed sandstone from the nearby wall, the line of which runs directly beneath the church, with a graduated roof made from greenslate, coped gables and a cross finial.

[9] Features of the church include two medieval grave slabs discovered during a series of Victorian restorations, built into the west wall behind the font.

To celebrate the church's 700th anniversary in 1996, kneelers were made to commemorate Rectors in each century;[11] Sir Elias de Thirwall was the first, his tenure starting in 1296.

The groom cuts a string tying the church gates shut, bestowing good luck to the couple; and a piece of rope is stretched across the road where wedding cars can pass only if they give money to the children.
