It happened at Bothel, at the road's junction with the A591, at 1.10pm. The road is partially blocked in both directions as a result.
Cumbria Police said the HGV left the A595 and overturned and ended up on its side in a field after going through a hedge.
Police and firefighters both attended but it is not believed anyone was hurt.
There are reports of heavy traffic in the area.
