More about this scene
The boatyard serves the marina, which has space for 100 boats. Lucas's boatbuilders are the premises near the large craft (centre). Popular regattas are held, and the Lancaster canal is nearby. Only just visible on the horizon is part of Lancaster University. The mainstay of Galgate villagers from 1790 to 1960 was the silk mill, where 400 people worked during the mill's heyday.
