Waverton is a linear village and civil parish in the Cumberland district of Cumbria, England.

The river is the reason for Waverton's name as well as it coming from the old English word tuǹ, this meaning "An enclosure; a farmstead; a village; an estate".

Its history is mainly focused around the agriculture industry and the Christ Church, located in what was previously known as the township.

The window on the east of the building had in the centre the figure of Jesus, as well as St. Peter and St. Paul by his sides.

There was also the Harvest Festival and Plough Sunday had been created to celebrate the mainly agricultural community environment.

[7] The majority of women, on the other hand, in the 1881 Census were shown not to have a specific occupation, mainly staying at home to look after their children and carry out domestic activities.
