Millom, Administrative division in Cumberland, England
The administrative division of Millom extends along the west bank of the River Duddon, encompassing townships of Birker, Austhwaite, Chapel Sucken, and Millom sectors.
The area transformed from a small hamlet into a substantial settlement after 1866, following the establishment of ironworks and the extraction of haematite from Hodbarrow mines.
The Norman Nicholson Society maintains the literary legacy of the local poet through exhibitions, while St George's Church displays a stained glass window commemorating his work.
Church records and documentation for Millom are stored at Barrow Record Office, where researchers can access registers exclusively through microfilm viewing systems.
The Hodbarrow iron mines site has transformed into a Royal Society for the Protection of Birds nature reserve, featuring an artificial lagoon that draws numerous bird species.
