Sedbergh, a very ancient place, mentioned in the Domesday book, had a motte and bailey type castle. The school, founded in 1525 by a Roger Lupton, a native of the parish was responsible for producing a number of famous scholars including Adam Sedgwick, the geologist. Behind the school can be seen Winder, the most southerly peak in the Howgills.
