About

The Roose area lies on the Furness Peninsula, bordered by Walney Channel to the west and the town of Barrow-in-Furness to the east. It is primarily residential, characterised by housing estates, local shops, and community facilities centred around Roose Road. The terrain is generally low-lying, with open fields and pockets of green space towards its northern edges, providing views across the surrounding coastal plain.

A notable local feature is the presence of the Furness Railway line, which runs through the area, connecting it directly to Barrow-in-Furness. This historical transport link underscores Roose's development as part of the wider industrial and residential fabric of Furness. The area maintains a distinct identity, with its own community hub and a sense of separation from the larger urban centre immediately adjacent.
