Lancaster, Lancashire Hotels and travel information
Lancaster Lancashire England
As the county town of Lancashire, Lancaster has a suitably historic background. It dates back as far as pre-Roman times, chosen for its convenient spot along the River Lune. The area remains dominated by the somewhat imposing sight of the medieval castle on Castle Hill.
Lancaster really came into its own though during the Georgian era, when rich merchants keen to show their new found wealth, decided to build a series of grand houses that can still be seen around the city today. Back then this was one of the countrys busiest ports bringing in daily cargoes of exotic spices and the likes along the Lancaster Canal. The local Maritime Museum is an excellent museum in which to familiarize yourself with some of this background history. It is also a prime example of some the towns most glorious Georgian architecture.
Other important historic sights are in abundance, from the Victorian neo-gothic St Peters Cathedral, to the 17th century Judges Lodgings. However, it is important to remember that Lancaster is not a town stuck in the past, quite the opposite in fact. As a busy University City the area has no problems in attracting a regular influx of new visitors, and there is plenty to keep them here long after their studying days are over. As well as numerous shopping facilities in the form of both modern shopping centres and traditional farmers markets, there are plenty of lively bars and restaurants to keep everyone entertained. There is also some interesting countryside and coastal resorts just a short distance away from the city centre.
