St. Bees ist ein Dorf in Bezirk Cumbria. Es liegt an der Nordwest-Küste Englands unweit der schottischen Grenze. Die nächste größere Stadt ist Whitehaven.

Der Ort hat ca. 1800 Einwohner[1]. St. Bees ist nach der irischen Einsiedlerin St. Bega benannt, die hier eine Klause hatte. Bees ist die anglizierte Namensform.

1817 gründete George Henry Law, ein konservativer Bischof von Chester und Bruder des Richters Ellenborough in St. Bees ein anglikanisches Seminar. Es sollte Kleriker ausbilden, die zu arm waren, um in Oxford oder Cambridge Theologie zu studieren[2].
