Cleator Moor
Cleator Moor, Cumbria. Sun 2 Sep 2018
Cleator Moor is built along a single long street, with mainly short
side streets
At its centre is the Market Square with municipal public buildings
including the library and town hall
and around and close to it some of the grander shops
Cross North St
Phoenix Youth Project, Birks Rd
High St. Many buildings are for sale
A short street off the main street

Phoenix bridge over the former railway line - now a path
One of the longer side streets by St John's Church, Crossfield Rd
Front gate of the church
The Church of St John Evangelist is next to the current Co-Op supermarket.
As I walked through the churchyard a man ran across from
the Co-op clutching 3 bottles of spirits, with another man chasing him and
shouting 20 yards behind. The thief carefully put down one
bottle on the path and ran on. His pursuer stopped to pick it up and the
thief escaped. The church needs roof repairs.
I walked back towards the town centre
and took a few pictures along the side streets of workers housing
The Commercial Hotel was built as ;The Beehive' in the 1870s. This
large commercial property was up for auction
in January 2018 with a guide price of £118,000.
