About

The Millom & Duddon Valley area encompasses the historic ironworking town of Millom, situated on the estuary flats, and the pastoral Duddon Valley stretching north into the Lake District fells. The landscape transitions from coastal marshes and the vast shingle expanse of Haverigg Haws to the valley's patchwork of farms and woodland, all framed by the Coniston Fells. The River Duddon, celebrated in Wordsworth's sonnets, winds through this quiet, working countryside.

Remnants of the area's industrial past are evident at Millom's museum, housed in the former ironworks castle, and in the network of old railway lines now used for walking. The valley is a route for few major roads, preserving its secluded character with scattered hamlets like Ulpha and Seathwaite. The shifting tidal sands of the Duddon Estuary create a distinct, ever-changing interface between the quiet valley and the Irish Sea.
