Hi!

This is the link to the Holme St Cuthbert History Group's  extensive site. 

  Solway Plain, Past and Present

Loads of stories and photo's.

http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/hstchg/index.htm

Well worth a visit if you have ancestors or an interest in the SSilloth and Solway coast, and the development of the town and railway and shipping links to Ireland to Liverpool and other places is facinating. 

Many emigrants started with a coastal link to Liverpool.

Fascinating for anyone.

Enjoy!
