Cumbria inEngland . Historically, the county watered by the Caldew wasCumberland .The Caldew's source is high up on
Skiddaw , between the summit and Sale How, in theLake District , from where it runs east through a valley between Bowscale Fell andCarrock Fell .At Hutton Roof, the river emerges from the dale and turns sharply northwards, a course taking it through the settlements of Hesket Newmarket, Sebergham, Gaitsgill, Buckabank and Dalston.
The river enters the suburbs of
Carlisle close to Cummersdale. In Carlisle, the Caldew skirts around the castle before emptying into the River Eden opposite Stanwix.
