stay and find your ideal accommodation.
On the southern edge of the Lake District
National Park, Broughton in Furness serves a large rural community
of hill farmers. Surrounded on three sides by grey, terraced
Georgian houses, mainly of the 18th century, the village's large
main square was important as a market centre for wool, oak baskets,
cattle, and coppice wood products. The Tourist Information Centre
is housed in the former 1766 Market Hall. Also in the square
are the village stocks and the stone fish slabs where the freshly
caught fish were sold. Broughton in Furness was popular as a
strategic site, situated where the River Duddon broadens into
an estuary. Also see Broughton in Furness
