Whitehaven postcard

Details
Published: 16 May 2026

Whitehaven, Cumbria

Whitehaven harbour looking picture-postcard-pretty now that the red pollution from disused iron ore mine workings has been cleared from the water. Once busy with passenger ferries, freight and shipping, now an enjoyable A-road ride there from Keswick for shopping. Any day you can ride a motorbike in warm sunshine is a good day!
