Nestling on the shores of the Solway Firth is the charming Victorian planned town of Silloth-on-Solway.
Silloth owes its name to the monks of Holme Cultram Abbey, a few miles to the south east, who cultivated the land, created a salt industry and encouraged the local people to farm the Solway Marshes.
The name derives from the 'lathes' (or barns) which were used to store the grain and located close to the sea, i.e.: 'Sea Lathes'.
