Colonel Tom Moore Mural

Highlight • Monument

On the facade of Jack's Surf Bar in Allonby is a large-scale mural of Colonel Tom Moore, created in May 2020 by Maryport artist Bethany Gray. The work was created during the COVID-19 pandemic as a visual tribute to Moore's fundraising efforts for the NHS and was made possible by local community support.

Milefort 21

Highlight • Historical Site

A chain of evenly spaced mileforts were built along the west Cumbrian coast from the end of Hadrian's Wall at Bowness-on-Solway to Ravenglass. The remains of these coastal defences offer a glimpse into what life would have been like for Roman soldier garrisoned here.

Milefort 21 was fully excavated in the 1990s and is a designated World Heritage Site. The site is now open to the public.

View Across the Irish Sea

Highlight • Lake

Allonby Beach is a vast sand and shingle beach on the Solway Firth, known for its panoramic views, shallow tidal pools, and rich birdlife. Located along the B5300, the beach is a popular stop on the Solway Coast Cycleway. Historically, Allonby was a fishing village with Quaker influences, evident in buildings like the Reading Rooms and North Lodge. Today, the beach is popular with walkers, kitesurfers, and heritage seekers, with views across to southern Scotland and, on a clear day, the Isle of Man. It is part of the Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and borders the environmentally protected Allonby Bay.

The Solway Coast Cycleway winds along the Solway Firth coast between Maryport and Carlisle, and is one of the most accessible and visually appealing sections of Hadrian's Cycleway. The route largely follows the B5300 and offers panoramic views across the Irish Sea, with views of southern Scotland and the Isle of Man on a clear day.
