Tips

Glasson Dock's harbour opened in 1787. In its prime, the harbour was the busiest in the North West, importing all manner of goods from Africa and the Indian Subcontinent.

Today, the village is a delightful spot on the Lune Estuary. There are a number of places to eat and drink, as well as fantastic walking in the surrounding countryside and along the coastal paths.

Small village at the mouth of the River Lune with a nice little port.

Decent toilets but you need 20p to get in.

Glasson Docks' car park can be paid for online.
