Dalton-in-Furness is a historic market town in Cumbria, England, located on the Furness peninsula. The town's history dates back to the Middle Ages when it served as the administrative center of Furness under the control of Furness Abbey. The town center is dominated by its 14th-century castle-tower, now housing the town hall, which reflects its historical importance in the region.

During the 19th century, Dalton developed alongside the local iron ore mining industry, which significantly influenced its growth and character. Today, while maintaining its historic charm with numerous listed buildings and medieval street patterns, the town serves as a residential community with close connections to the larger industrial town of Barrow-in-Furness.

The area's cultural heritage is preserved through various historic sites and local institutions, including the Tudor-style Dalton Castle, managed by the National Trust.
