More about this scene
On Cove Lane there was an ancient chapel. The lane also led to Jenny Brown's Point, where an old lady of that name lived in the 18th century. Copper smelting was carried on here, and the chimney stack at Crag Foot became a useful landmark for travellers crossing the dangerous sands of Morecambe Bay. In the 1920s Silverdale village was left high and dry, for the River Kent changed course. Before that steamers called here.
