Solway Past and Present

Solway Past and Present. Monday, 15 June 2015. In the nineteenth century, north-west Cumberland was served by three different railway companies. The line to Silloth opened in 1855 when the old canal to Port Carlisle was filled in. It followed the line of the canal as far as Drumbrugh and new tracks were laid to what was a completely new town and port. By 1900, Silloth had a large goods yard and a station with a platform long enough to accommodate the busiest excursion trains. Sunday, 14 June 2015. The ex...

http://www.solwaypastandpresent.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-reservists.html

Solway Past and Present. Thursday, 23 April 2015. Eight battalions were formed, all named after famous naval commanders. Most of the Silloth reservists were assigned to the Collingwood battalion.

Notes by the Solway

Tuesday, 1 April 2014. Ally's Bizarre Mishaps: Nos 2 and 3. Ally's Bizarre Mishaps - No.2 (29th March 2014). Ally's Bizarre Mishaps - No.3 (1st April 2014). My first thought: shoes and socks off - get into the water and retrieve it!
