Morecambe and bay
Overlooking Morecambe Bay and half moon bay, it is a ferry port with services to the Isle of Man and Ireland.
Morecambe Bay is a large bay in northwest England, nearly due east of the Isle of Man and just to the south of the Lake District National Park.
The largest town by far on the bay is Barrow-in-Furness located to the north-west of it, whilst the town which adopted its name from the bay ( Morecambe was previously called Poulton-le-Sands ) has a population of around half of Barrow's.
Morecambe relied on the bay for many years, as a popular seaside holiday destination, whilst Barrow still relies on the seas for a large percentage of its economy-Ship and Submarine building.
In the early 1090s Lonsdale, Cartmel and Furness were added to Roger's estates to facilitate the defence of the area south of Morecambe Bay from Scottish raiding parties, which travelled round the Cumberland coast and across the bay at low water, rather than through the mountainous regions of the Lake District.
The station is adjacent to the Grange-Over-Sands Promenade which runs along the edge of Morecambe Bay ( until the River Kent changed its course, it was alongside the promenade-it is now ( 2011 ) further out in the bay towards Arnside ).
