Brampton is situated nine miles east of Carlisle, near to Carlisle Airport on the B6243.   The town was founded in the 7th century, with many of the historic houses still remaining. The population of Brampton and the surrounding area is approximately 6,500 people, with this number being increased by tourists visiting this lovely area.

The fire station is staffed by firefighters on the retained duty system and has one fire engine.

The risks are mainly residential, although there are a number of pubs and guest houses which cater to the tourist trade, the station also covers a large rural community extending to approximately 12,500 hectares. Due to the busy roads which surround Brampton, including the A69, the station attends a number of road traffic collisions.  

The station is an integral part of the community, by being involved in a wide range of community activities, such as carrying out home safety visits, attending gala's and fetes, educating children on fire safety, and being   involved in a wide range of fund raising events for the Fire Service National Benevolent Fund and other charities.
