Arnside Parish Council
October 25, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
Arnside is one of the largest villages in Cumbria (formerly Westmorland), situated on the border with Lancashire, and facing the estuary of the River Kent, just before it flows into Morecambe Bay.
Whilst attracting many tourists and holiday makers, it is also a popular retirement area, having a thriving, and very active, community life.
It is located within one of Britain’s smallest Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty – the Arnside/Silverdale AONB.

Allithwaite Upper Parish Council
October 4, 2008 by admin · Leave a Comment
The Parish of Allithwaite Upper comprises the villages of Lindale, Low and High Newton, Cumbria, with a population of 824 according to the 2001 census.
Lindale’s major claim to fame is that it was the former home to John Wilkinson who built the world’s first iron ship. John Wilkinson, an ironmaster lived at nearby Castle Head, a mansion once housing St Mary’s college.
In the 1700s he and his father, Isacc, began an iron industry in the village.
A memorial to him sits near the crossroads on the way to Grange.

Caldbeck
September 7, 2008 by admin · Leave a Comment
Caldbeck is situated just outside of Carlisle in the NW of England.
It has recently been put on the map by being one of only two sites in the country to require the building of a new TV mast for Digital TV.
Caldbeck Parish lies at the foot of the Northern Fells. Carrock Fell, High Pike, and Longlands overlook it, with the peak of Skiddaw sometimes visible beyond. It stretches from High Intack in the west to Haltcliff Bridge in the east and from the north at Blue Gate to the south at Linewath.
Caldbeck Parish is within the jurisdiction of Allerdale Borough Council and most of it, only excluding a small section north of the village of Caldbeck, lies within the Lake Distict National Park.
Caldbeck Parish is a beautiful and quiet rural area. It is popular with tourists, walkers and cyclists and is a very desirable place to live and bring up children, or to retire to from more crowded rural districts. It is difficult to believe that it was one of the most industrialised parts of England.
