Its council is based in Penrith. It is named after the River Eden which flows north through the district toward Carlisle. It has an area of 2,156 km², making it (since 2009) the eighth largest district in England and the largest non-unitary district. It also has the lowest population density of any district in England and Wales, with a mean of just 25 persons per square kilometre. In 2011, the population was 5% above its 2001 level.〔 The district council was created on 1 April 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972, from the Penrith urban district, Alston with Garrigill Rural District and Penrith Rural District, all in Cumberland, and Appleby Municipal Borough, part of Lakes urban district and North Westmorland Rural District, all in Westmorland. Part of the Lake District National Park is in the district. The West Coast Main Railway Line runs through the district but with only one station at Penrith. Services on this line are provided by Virgin Trains and First TransPennine Express. The Northern Rail Settle-Carlisle Railway also goes through the district and has stations at Armathwaite, Lazonby, Langwathby, Appleby and Kirkby Stephen. Roads through the district are the M6 motorway, the A6 and the A66. It was shown a national detailed Land Use Survey by the Office for National Statistics in 2005 that Eden District has the second lowest proportion of land taken up by roads of any district in England: 0.8%, fractionally greater than Craven in North Yorkshire and both adjoining the Pennines. This compared with a maximum of over 20% in four London boroughs and the City of London.〔(Key Statistics: Dwellings; Quick Statistics: Population Density; Physical Environment: Land Use Survey 2005 ) 2011 census〕 In that detailed survey (to the nearest m²) it was shown that Eden District had the greatest proportion of greenspace (which excludes domestic gardens) of any district, 97.9%, as shown by the following extract: ==Wards== Below is a list of the wards that form Eden: '' * *Alston Moor * *Appleby (Appleby) *Appleby (Bongate) *Askham *Brough *Crosby Ravensworth *Dacre *Eamont *Greystoke *Hartside *Hesket * *Kirkby Stephen * *Kirkby Thore *Kirkoswald *Langwathby *Lazonby *Long Marton *Morland *Orton with Tebay *Penrith Carleton *Penrith East * *Penrith North *Penrith Pategill *Penrith South * *Penrith West * *Ravenstonedale *Shap *Skelton *Ullswater *Warcop 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eden District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
