History

The district’s recorded history stretches back to the Bronze Age, and we keep discovering stuff! At Heysham is one of the earliest Christian settlements at St Patrick’s with the unusual stone-cut graves. Next door is the Grade 1 listed St Peter’s church dating from as early as the 7^th century. Inside you’ll find the Viking hogback (grave cover) stone dating from the tenth century. Fancy visiting an English Heritage town? Lancaster was an important Roman settlement and is only three miles from Morecambe. It is the seat of the Duchy of Lancaster and boasts a highly impressive castle. Much of the historic architecture in Lancaster has been preserved.

Morecambe Holidays & Leisure

Whatever your leisure pleasure, Morecambe can certainly offer you plenty. Keen cyclist ? Base yourself here to explore the Bay, or tackle some of the country’s more challenging hills in the Lake District. Fishing? We’ve got your line! Walking? Our vast seaside promenade is perfect for gentle strolls or discover the many walks in our areas of outstanding natural beauty. Festival and events lover? We’re almost embarrassed by our riches in this field. Bird watching? Big tick in that box. Did you know over 250,000 birds over-winter in Morecambe Bay?

Since the Bay Gateway link road opened it’s no lie to say that Morecambe is the closest seaside resort to any motorway in the UK, bar none. On average, it takes approximately 10 mins to get from the M6 to the centre of Morecambe.

Morecambe Bay

Morecambe Bay is six times bigger than Sydney Harbour; has over 250,000 birds over-wintering each year, and is home to three of the twelve tidal bores in the UK. Morecambe Bay is world-renowned as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, as well as a RAMSAR site. In addition, Morecambe has been officially designated as the centre point of the United Kingdom.

Lancaster District also benefits by being almost equidistant between London and Edinburgh/Glasgow, is on the major West Coast rail line, and just off the M6 motorway. It has great transport links to all the major regional cities including Manchester and Liverpool; borders the Lake District; dales and moors; & the Arnside and Forest of Bowland Areas of Natural Beauty.

The recent announcement by the Eden Project that their next UK project will be based in Morecambe, focusing on the marine environment, is destined to propel Morecambe to the next level of desirable destinations meaning that Morecambe will truly be the Eden of the North.
