'''Lancashire North of the Sands''' is an exclave of the county Lancashire which lies to the north and west of the Kent estuary, separated from the main body of the county by a small spur of south-western [[Westmorland]]. [[Cumberland]] lies to the north and west. Lancashire North of the Sands is occasionally referred to as Furness, although that more properly is one of its constituent areas, the other being the Cartmel peninsula immediately to its east. By far the largest settlement in this part of Lancashire is [[Barrow in Furness]].
