Did you know ?
Millom, a charming town nestled in the South Lakes district of Cumbria, England, has a rich history that is deeply intertwined with the iron ore mining industry. Its significance is marked by the Hodbarrow Mining Company, established in 1855, which was once the largest iron mine in the world. The Hodbarrow iron mine was so integral to the town that upon its closure in 1968, an entire era of Millom's history was considered to have ended. The old mine now forms part of the RSPB Hodbarrow Nature Reserve, a haven for a diverse range of wildlife and a testament to nature's resilience, offering locals and visitors a glimpse into a bygone industrial era.

Millom is also renowned as the birthplace of the esteemed poet Norman Nicholson, often referred to as the 'Bard of Cumberland'.

His childhood home at 14 St. George's Terrace, now affectionately known as the 'Norman Nicholson House', is a site of cultural importance and was awarded Grade II listed status in 2012. The annual Norman Nicholson Festival, dedicated to celebrating his life and works, serves to highlight Millom's cultural significance within the British literary landscape.

Millom is a town and civil parish on the north shore of the estuary of the River Duddon in southernmost Cumberland, Cumbria, England. It is situated just outside the Lake District National Park, about six miles (ten kilometres) north of Barrow-in-Furness (23 mi or 37 km by road) and 26 mi (42 km) south of Whitehaven. Millom was constructed as a new town, beginning in 1866 and subsumed the village of Holborn Hill. Built around ironworks, the town grew to a size of over 10,000 people by the 1960s, but has struggled since the works were closed in 1968. Culturally, Millom is notable as the birthplace of poet Norman Nicholson, and for its historical links with rugby league. The name is Cumbrian dialect for "At the mills".
