Glasson

Glasson is a pretty fishing village located between the River Lune and the sea, in the north of England, near Lancaster. The pier was opened in 1878, as a new development in the area. It offered an alternative to long boats which could not get to drop their goods in Lancaster. Then they built a canal to allow passage, and Glasson stopped being a leisure port. In 1837, when Queen Victoria came to the throne, they began building boats in Glasson. One was in the film Hispaniola about treasure island. Now you can go fishing, rest for a few days, and there are many people who come with caravans or to camp here, the weather is nice but the sea is very cold! There are many bike paths, which they promote a lot, and motorists are quite careful of people who are on foot or bike.
