A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHITEHAVEN
The maritime port of Whitehaven was once the third largest in the UK with trade links all over the world. The town’s prosperity was built on coal, developed by the wealthy Lowther family who also laid out the elegant Georgian town. The wealth of Georgian architecture led to Whitehaven being listed as a ‘gem town’
The historic 17th century harbour, enhanced by nautical sculptures, dramatic lighting effects and a brand new marina, is the focus for spectacular maritime events and activities including the occasional visit of tall sailing ships.
In the mid 18th century, Whitehaven was used as a template for the expansion of New York.
