Aiketgate is a small village in the English county of Cumbria. It is within the civil parish of Hesket.

Development of wind turbines in the Eden Valley has drawn attention to Aiketgate. A company called Harmony Energy Ltd. has plans to erect a 77-metre-high (253 ft) mast at Barrock End Farm in Aiketgate. These plans are opposed by the campaign group- NO2AWT.[1]
