About Fencing in Morecambe
Morecambe in Lancashire grew out of three small fishing villages, Poulton le Sands, Bare and Torrisholme, which stood quietly on the shore of Morecambe Bay until the railway arrived in the mid 19th century and transformed the coastline into a seaside resort. The Morecambe Harbour and Railway Company was formed in 1846 to build a harbour, and by 1850 a rail link to Skipton, Keighley and Bradford brought a steady flow of visitors from the West Riding of Yorkshire and Glasgow, giving Morecambe a different character to nearby Blackpool, which drew mainly from the Lancashire mill towns. The resort reached its golden age between the 1930s and 1950s, when its promenade, piers and attractions were at their busiest, before a long decline set in in the second half of the 20th century.
