Moor Row
Moor Row is a village located in North West England. It remains in Cumbria and is located on a minor road off the A595 road south of Whitehaven. Moor Row is a residential community positioned between Whitehaven and Egremont on Cumbria's coastal plain. The history of Moor Row returns to at least 1762, yet it was the 19th century discovery of iron ore in the vicinity that built the 'row of residences on a moor'. Cornish tin miners moved right here to work the mines, as well as their existence is noted in a variety of street names such as Penzance Street. One street, Dalzell, is named after Thomas Henry Dalzell, a mine owner. The village name most likely describes the Scalegill street residences, which are kept in mind on an 1860 Ordnance Survey map. The 1859 homes on Dalzell Street are thought to be the earliest of the terraced rows. The town has grown in the 20th century, adding modern suburban houses to the combination and also is continuing to do so in the 21st century.
