Location and topography

Kaber township marker stone on the road to Tan Hill

The village is located about 2 miles (3.2 km) to the south of Brough. Until the latest boundary changes Kaber was situated in the historic county of Westmorland.

The northern boundary of the civil parish is formed by the River Belah which rises near Kaber Fell to the southeast and flows just north of the village en route to joining the River Eden.

The population taken at the 2011 Census was less than 100. Parish record details are maintained in the adjacent parish of Winton.
