Moor Row
Moor Row is a village located in North West England. It is in Cumbria as well as lies on a small road off the A595 road south of Whitehaven. Moor Row is a residential community located between Whitehaven and Egremont on Cumbria's coastal plain. The history of Moor Row returns to at least 1762, however it was the 19th century discovery of iron ore in the vicinity that developed the 'row of homes on a moor'. Cornish tin miners relocated right here to work the mines, and their visibility is noted in a variety of street names such as Penzance Street. One street, Dalzell, is called after Thomas Henry Dalzell, a mine proprietor. The town name probably refers to the Scalegill street houses, which are kept in mind on an 1860 Ordnance Survey map. The 1859 houses on Dalzell Street are believed to be the oldest of the terraced rows. The village has actually grown in the 20th century, including modern country residences to the mix and also is continuing to do so in the 21st century.
