Under Construction

We're crafting something truly special for the Furness community—a digital archive that captures the very essence of our local heritage, where the salty tang of Morecambe Bay mingles with the fresh coastal breeze, and where every cobblestone tells a story.

Our heritage hub is being meticulously built to share the stories, photographs, and rich history of Furness, Cumbria. Each tale whispered through generations around cosy firesides, every faded sepia photograph capturing moments frozen in time, and the weathered stones of our historic landmarks—from the ancient abbey ruins standing sentinel on the peninsula to the bustling market squares where traders once called their wares—all preserved for future generations to discover and cherish.

Throughout 2026, we're embarking on an exciting journey to bring Furness's history to life. We'll be digitising thousands of historic photographs, recording oral histories from our oldest residents, creating interactive maps of historic locations, launching community workshops, and educational resources for schools.

Please check back soon as we prepare to unveil our collection of local memories and historical treasures, where the past comes alive through words, images, and the shared experiences of our community. You'll be able to hear the clatter of mill machinery, smell the fresh bread from long-closed bakeries, and feel the weight of history in every carefully curated story.
