Lorton consists of two parts: High Lorton and Low Lorton and lies on the east bank of the River Cocker. The village is flanked to the east and south east by the fells of Grasmoor, Hopegill Head, Whiteside, Ladyside, and Whin Fell. The River Cocker runs along the bottom of the valley dividing Lorton from Blindbothel. For an accurate map of the Lorton Parish boundary, see here.
