New Shambles - Michael Goodwin''s shop

The boy in the hat is my grandfather, and the girl is his sister. The shop that they are standing outside belonged to their grandfather, a well travelled gentleman born in 1832. The view is remarkably unchanged in 2008!

Dr Manning's Yard.

My grandma used to live in the Cottage above the head of the Boy leaning on the wall. We use to love visiting and playing in the Yard. Great memories.

The Council Chamber, the setting for the formal meetings of the full Borough Council, is immediately off the Queen's Hall; this... [more]

Barrow-in-Furness A History and Celebration

Officially it is designated Her Majesty's Submarine Torpedo Boat No 1. Many at the Admiralty still considered the new- fangled machine a shameful and un-British device. Despite these early doubts, by the outbreak of the First World War Britain had the largest and most advanced submarine fleet in the world, and Vickers were responsible for building 69 of the 74 submarines in the Royal Navy. However, it was... [more]

Barrow-in-Furness A History and Celebration

The highly skilled workforce is still here; it is the scale of operations that has been reduced, as the industrial complexes in Barrow-in-Furness have slimmed down to remain competitive and efficient.
