My father told me when I was a kid, I’m 82 now that Morecambe was on Roman maps and was probably earlier, thanks that was fascinating.

Thank you so much for sharing this article. I've only had time to watch and listen to part of it. It's fascinating to listen to Dr. Bill Shannon's explanation, both in speech and photographs, of how Morecambe got it's name. Wonderful and so interesting. Can recommend this.

My Grandad, Frank Lambert, had a fish shop in Lancaster in the river Lune loved maps and would have loved this, I too love maps, I live in Canada now but thank you for this and learning a bit more about where 1/2 my family is from. Makes me think about sitting on top of Arnside Knot, really is something.
