Ulverston is a historic market town situated in the Furness peninsula of Cumbria, England. The town's history dates back to the Middle Ages when it received its market charter in 1280. Notable for its position at the edge of the Lake District National Park, Ulverston combines industrial heritage with cultural significance.

The town is perhaps best known as the birthplace of Stan Laurel, one half of the famous comedy duo Laurel and Hardy. The town's architectural landscape is characterized by its traditional market town layout, with a mix of Georgian and Victorian buildings centered around its market cross. The most distinctive landmark is the Hoad Monument, a lighthouse-like structure built in 1850 to commemorate Sir John Barrow, a local-born naval administrator and explorer.

Ulverston maintains its cultural heritage through various festivals and events throughout the year, and its historic center provides insights into the town's development from a medieval market town to its current status as a gateway to the Lake District.
