Lamplugh (/ˈlæmplə/) is a scattered community and civil parish located in West Cumbria on the edge of the English Lake District and historically part of Cumberland.
The Whitehaven Cleator and Egremont Railway, later LMS, also ran through the parish, with a station in Wright Green.
While St. Michael's church is built on the highest point in the village, the local pub, the Lamplugh Tip Inn, is over a mile away on the A5086.
Because Lamplugh Civil Parish is very large, it includes Kirkland as well as Eskett and also, until recent boundary changes, parts of both Ennerdale Bridge and Rowrah.
ISBN 0-9547482-0-4 Lamplugh is the starting point for a number of walks, and is also on the Sea to Sea / C2C / Coast to Coast Cycle Route, which runs along the roads forming the national park boundary described above.
