  • Enjoyed by the Rev. John .Macauley, .MA, Who Resides A
    372 HISTORY OF FURNESS AND CARTMEL. the Duchy of Lancaster, is now worth about £1,093. per annum, and i~:~ enjoyed by the Rev. John .Macauley, .M.A., who resides at the rectory house, a pleasant dwelling near the church. The Rev. John Stonard, D.D., late rector, who died April 22nd, 1849, in the 81 st year of his age, was author of several works which evinced great talent and research. Bayrlijfo is a hamlet in Aldingham township, situate near the shore, five miles S. of Ulverston; Newbiggin is another hamlet in the same township, four miles S.E. of Dalton, and Rossbeck, another hamlet, four and a half miles S.S.E. of Dalton. Scales is a village in Aldingham, five miles S. of Ulverston. The hill called Scales haggs contains many large subterraneous eavities, in one of which some human skeletons have been found. Sunbreak is another small hamlet in this township, three and a half miles S. of Ulverston. GLEASTON township contains a village in a low situation, near a brook, two and a half miles S.E. of Dalton. The name is probably a contraction of Giasserton, which is derived from the British words, glas, green, er, fallow or ploughed land, and ton, a town or village. A little to the north-east of the village appear the venerable ruins of Gleaston Castle. whose shattered walls of massy thickness, and mouldering towers lighted by small apertures, demonstrate the design for which it was erected, and awaken in the mind "historical associations, contrasting widely with the calm and settled tran­ quillity of the present age.

  • Railways List
    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

On its borders are the villages of Silecroft, Kirksanton, Haverigg, Broughton in Furness, Foxfield, Kirkby in Furness, Ireleth, Askam and the town of Millom. On the horizon are the Lake District Fells which include Coniston, Langdale and Scafell Ranges and is the gateway to Ulpha, Duddon and Lickle Valleys. Wordsworth wrote extensively of the Duddon, a river he knew and loved from his early years. The Parish has approximately 900 Residents. The main industry in this and surrounding areas is tourism and its relevant services. Farming is also predominant and in Millom there are a number of small industrial units. The Parish is also home to Ghyll Scaur Quarry. 2. Our Heritage Millom Without is rich in sites of both historic and environmental interest.
