Brampton Deanery is situated to the north east of the Diocese of Carlisle and covers a large area from Penrith in the middle of the county to the far north of the county bordering on Scotland.
The parishes are generally small and fairly widespread, this makes the sharing of parishes for incumbents fairly difficult, as distances to be covered are obviously greater than in an urban setting.
The deanery contains 29 churches divided up into benefices of two, three or four churches plus one large team ministry in the Brampton area.  

Newly resident in Brampton Deanery are the Revd’s Richard Tulloch Team Rector in the Eden Gelt and Irthing Team, and Rod Allon-Smith, Vicar of Lanercost.
