Carlatton is a civil parish in the Cumberland district of Cumbria, England. It lies north-west of Cumrew, with which it shares a parish council, 5 miles (8 km) south of Brampton, and 8 miles (13 km) south-east of Carlisle.

History

Carlatton was an ancient parish in the historic county of Cumberland. It had a church as late as the 14th century, which stood near Carlatton Mill on the Cairn Beck. No trace of the church now remains, and Carlatton came to be considered an extra-parochial township.^[2]^[3] In 1858, such extra-parochial townships were converted into civil parishes.^[4]

Governance

There are two tiers of local government covering Carlatton, at parish and unitary authority level: Carlatton and Cumrew Parish Council, and Cumberland Council. The parish council is a grouped parish council, also covering the neighbouring parish of Cumrew.^[5] For national elections, Carlatton is within the Carlisle constituency.^[6]
