Stainton with Adgarley is a small village in Cumbria, England.[1][2] It is situated about 5 miles from Dalton-in-Furness. It is a small farming community and is served by the Urswick Bardsea and Stainton Parish Council.[3][4]
There were once two villages, Stainton and Adgarley. The Stainton name comes from the original Steintun. Adgarley was once called Eadgarlith. Each has its own village green.[5]
