Millers Bridge, also known as Harris Bridge, is a steel pedestrian bridge over the River Derwent in Cockermouth, Cumbria, connecting the northern and southern parts of the city. The original structure was destroyed by severe flooding in 2009, and the bridge was rebuilt in 2010 with modified foundations to address changes in the riverbank caused by erosion. The reopening by HRH The Princess Royal underscored the importance of this connection to the local community. As a functional infrastructure, the bridge not only provides pedestrian access but also views of the surrounding landscape.

Wordsworth House rises majestically on Main Street in Cockermouth, a charming town on the edge of the Lake District. Built around 1745, the house reflects the understated grandeur of Georgian architecture: a perfectly symmetrical façade of sand-colored bricks, tall rectangular windows with classically framed woodwork, and an ornate yet understated doorway that evokes the sense of order and proportion characteristic of this period. The poet William Wordsmouth was born here in 1770.

The pre-Victorian centre of old Cockermouth, Market Place is the heart of the old town.

Millers Bridge, as it is known in Cockermouth (official maps refer to it as Harris Bridge), was reopened in 2010 by HRH the Princess Royal after it had suffered severe damage in the 2009 floods and a section of it collapsed into the River Derwent. Part of the steel bridge had to be rebuilt to fit the new shape of the river banks, which were heavily eroded during the floods and have now been fortified.

This footbridge over the River Cocker is the last crossing point upstream on foot before Southwaite Bridge. It is located close to Double Mills and joins the lower section of Harris Park with the park on the east bank of the river.

Cockermouth War Memorial, outside the site of the old station and now close to the Cockermouth Mountain Rescue Team headquarters and the Fire Station, commemorates the fallen of Cockermouth in the Great War.

This woodland is north of Double Mills Bridge and the fitness area and opposite Rubbybanks Road that follows the west bank of the River Cocker down into town. There is a lovely shaded path through the wood, high above the Cocker and finishing in the Greenway.

This is the lower section of Harris Park, by the banks of the River Cocker - both sides. Also known as Double Mills for the former mills with their Mill Race from the River Cocker.
