Moving to Lancashire?

Lancashire was founded in 1182, later than a lot of counties, but swiftly became an important player on the English political scene. It was a focal point for the Wars of the Roses, a century-long battle for the throne of England between the House of York and the House of Lancaster, eventually won in 1485 by the Lancastrians, who were represented by a red rose. (The York rose was white.) Later, the region became one of the most active centres of the Industrial Revolution. Cotton, wool, and minerals were all produced in vast quantities all over the county and shipped off around the world from the ports at Preston and Liverpool. Barrow-in-Furness was a crucial shipbuilding centre during this period. The area continued to prosper until by 1971 the population was over 5 million. The Local Government Act of 1972 carved up the country, removing Manchester and Liverpool as well as numerous small towns.

Lancaster is the county town, dominated by Lancaster Castle. The castle was built on a Roman site at the end of the 11th century – part of the Norman keep still stands – and expanded in the 12th century. Since 1196 it has been a prison. There is also a Crown Court here, the oldest in the country, which was the site of the notorious Pendle Witch Trials in 1612. Parts of the castle are open to the public but debate still rages about whether to move the prisoners elsewhere so as to make all of it accessible. The city centre is pleasant to stroll through; many of the buildings date from the 18th century, when the port was one of the busiest in the UK. Lancaster Grand Theatre and the Dukes are both excellent venues for open air performances.

Blackpool is one of the world’s great seaside resorts, opened in the 18th century as an exclusive destination for sea bathing and popularised with the advent of mass rail travel in the 19th century. Today it is the gay capital of the north and visitors tend to come for weekends, attracted by the huge clubs and bars. Landmarks include the Blackpool Tower, opened in 1894 and modelled on the Eiffel Tower; the three piers; Blackpool Pleasure Beach, a huge amusement park which features the Pepsi Max Big One, the world’s tallest and fastest rollercoaster until 1996; and the Illuminations, a series of lighted displays and collages arranged along the entire length of the sea front. The World Ballroom Dancing Championships are held here every year.

Preston is home to the National Football Museum, which preserves several collections of important football memorabilia. With its large Asian community, it’s also an excellent place to get a curry. From nearby Beacon Fell, there are views over Blackpool, Preston, and the Forest of Bowland. Many species of dragonfly make their home there. Morecambe Bay is the largest expanse of intertidal mudflats and sand in the UK. Made notorious by the deaths of twenty-one Chinese cockle pickers there in 2004, it has an incredibly fast tide, “as fast as a horse can run” according to some, and should only be crossed with an official guide. Despite the danger, it is one of the wonders of the North, with abundant birdlife and varied marine habitats.

No description of Lancashire would be complete without mentioning its distinctive cuisine. The two best-known exports are Lancashire hotpot, a stew made with lamb and potatoes, and Lancashire cheese, a delicious sharp crumbly cheese: many people are surprised to learn that black pudding, toad in the hole (sausages baked in batter), and fish and chips also originated here. Other popular foods include Goosnargh cakes, shortbread biscuits with coriander or caraway; Fag Pie, a pie made with dried figs, sugar and lard; and Pobbies, bread and milk. You’ll probably leave Lancashire a pound or two heavier, but it’s worth it!
