Angerton or Angerton Moss is an extra parochial spot in the Furness portion of Lancashire, on the Duddon estuary. It includes a few houses, Angerton Hall, and Angerton Marsh.

It became a civil parish following the Extra-Parochial Places Act 1857, and merged with Seathwaite with Dunnerdale and Broughton West CPs to form Duddon CP in 1976. The 2001 census recorded a population of 14. Owing to the minimal population, details from the 2011 Census were recorded in the parish of Kirkby Ireleth.
