Farleton is a village near Milnthorpe in Westmorland. It stands just to the east of the main A6070 road, from which it is divided by the Lancaster Canal, some eight and a half miles south of Kendal.
Farleton used to have one public house called 'the Duke' after the Duke of York but this was turned into a dwelling house in the early part of the twentieth century.
A small river flows through the village. It is a small place, with no pub and one post box. There is also a limestone kiln and the remains of a limestone quarry.
