Warwick Bridge lies within the civil parish of Wetheral though Corby Hill and Little Corby are in Hayton parish.
Warwick Bridge is located on the River Eden and the A69 road, near the River Irthing. It is five miles east of the city of Carlisle and four miles from the town of Brampton. The bridge on the Eden, which gave the village its name, was built from 1833 to 1835 by Francis Giles.[3][4]
The village has a post office in Corby Hill,[5] a Co-operative Food store[6] and 2 churches, one being Our Lady & St Wilfrid's Church[7] and the other St Paul's Holme Eden.[8] There are two large mansion houses near or in the village, Warwick Hall and Holme Eden Hall built in 1837.[9]
