Penrith Cumbria – Penrith is an English town in the county of Cumbria, which in the past was in Cumberland. Penrith lies north of the River Eamont in the Eden Valley and is less than 5 miles outside the boundary of the Lake District National Park. The Lowther and Petteril are other rivers that flow around the town. Petteril and Eamont are partially offset by a manmade waterway connected, which flows through the town centre and known as a “Thacka Beck” has been there for several centuries and provided the town with water. Penrith lies north-west of Appleby-in-Westmorland which is on the River Eden.
