Cargo is a small village near the mouth of the River Eden on the Solway Plain of Cumberland, about three and a half miles north-west of Carlisle.
The name Cargo reflects a combination of two languages; from the Cumbric or Old Welsh word carreg meaning "rock" and the Old Norse word haugr meaning "hill".
