Lowick, Cumbria

Lowick is a village and civil parish in the Westmorland and Furness district of the ceremonial county of Cumbria, England.

Prior to 1 April 1974 it was part of Lancashire, the change being as a result of the Local Government Act 1972.

The village appears in records as early as 1202 as Lofwik, and later as Laufwik: the name derives from the Old Norse "Lauf-vík" (English: Leafy Bay).

Lowick Green has a red phone box, one of a number surviving in rural Britain.

There are games, stalls, cattle, ferret and dog shows, as well as competitions for bakery, and arts and crafts.
