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