ED Profile Egremont
Egremont Electoral Division Profile 2017 Overview of Electoral Division Egremont is a fair trade market town within the district of Copeland, five miles south of Whitehaven on the River Ehen. The town which lies at the foot of Uldale Valley and Dent Fell has a long industrial heritage including dyeing, weaving and iron ore mining. Egremont has its own Town Council. The town’s layout today is much the same as at the time of Richard de Lucy around 1200 with its wide Main Street opening out into the market place. The remains of the Norman castle, built in the 12th century, are situated at the southern end of Main Street near the market place. Egremont was granted a charter for a market and annual fair by King Henry III in 1266. The resulting annual Crab Fair now hosts the World Gurning Championships. Egremont’s Florence Mine was until 2008 the last working deep iron ore mine left in Western Europe and produced ore, products for the cosmetics industry and high quality haematite for jewellery. The Mine has now been renovated and re-opened as an Art Centre. The town has three primary schools and one secondary school namely West Lakes Academy which provides education up to Sixth Form. The town has its own climbing wall, library, fire station, a large market hall and a cemetery. The largest employer in the area is the nuclear industry/Sellafield Ltd based at Seascale and there is the Bridge End Industrial Estate which is approximately one mile from Egremont town centre. The A595 is within close proximity and provides access north and south of Copeland. -
