The small town of Brough is in the picturesque county of Cumbria at the edge of the Pennines and within the Eden district, named after the River Eden. The village is actually made-up of two parts; to the south is Church Brough which is home to the Norman Brough Castle and to the north is Market Brough with its long main street. Church Brough is centred around its market square and as well as the castle, the 12th century St. Michael's Church is here. The village was at its peak during the 18th and 19th centuries when travellers would stop at one of the many coaching inns. The major road from England to Scotland passed through here and at one point there more than 10 coaching inns serving the coach travellers.
Brough has ample amenities and shops, pubs and eateries and there are other more developed towns nearby it you are looking for a wider choice. Many visitors come for the scenery and outdoor activities that are available locally as well as the historic sites including the ruined Brough Castle. It consists of an extensive range of buildings, with a circular corner tower and the remnants of an older four storey keep. When it was originally built around 1090, it was a stone motte and bailey castle. The site chosen was formally a Roman fort that guarded the Roman road linking Carlisle with Ermine Street.
