View Across the Irish Sea

Highlight • Lake

Allonby Beach is a vast sand and shingle beach on the Solway Firth, known for its panoramic views, shallow tidal pools, and rich birdlife. Located along the B5300, the beach is a popular stop on the Solway Coast Cycleway. Historically, Allonby was a fishing village with Quaker influences, evident in buildings like the Reading Rooms and North Lodge. Today, the beach is popular with walkers, kitesurfers, and heritage seekers, with views across to southern Scotland and, on a clear day, the Isle of Man. It is part of the Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and borders the environmentally protected Allonby Bay.

Colonel Tom Moore Mural

Highlight • Monument

On the facade of Jack's Surf Bar in Allonby is a large-scale mural of Colonel Tom Moore, created in May 2020 by Maryport artist Bethany Gray. The work was created during the COVID-19 pandemic as a visual tribute to Moore's fundraising efforts for the NHS and was made possible by local community support.

Christ Church

Highlight • Religious Site

Christ Church in Silloth is an Anglican church that has been a recognizable landmark in the coastal town on the Solway Firth since its consecration in 1870. The building is designed in the Victorian Gothic style, with a striking granite façade and a characteristic broach spire that defines Silloth's skyline.

Built in stone and brick, with an apsidal east end; the interior is in red and yellow brick, with decorative embroidery and a "pasta" Celtic cross; the tower contains eight bells, currently not playable.
