Great Corby is a village in northern Cumbria, England, above the eastern bank of a wooded gorge on the River Eden.
This is on the Tyne Valley Line from Newcastle to Carlisle, which passes to the north of the village.
Early in 2015, the Corby Bridge Inn, beside the level crossing on the railway at the northern entrance to the village, closed after being sold to a property developer.
Corby Castle is now owned by the family of Northern Irish businessman Edward Haughey.
Within the village many sporting events occur largely due to the effort of the Great Corby Cricket Club.
