Arnside Cumbria Map

About Arnside

Arnside, a Cumbrian village, commands a position along the north bank of the River Kent estuary. It lies 5.0 km east of Grange-over-Sands (from Grange-over-Sands: bearing 79°T, OS grid SD 455 787), and is situated west of Carr Bank village. The village’s distinctive foreshore, a sweep of mudflats and saltmarshes, is a haven for wading birds, their calls carried on the ever-present wind from Morecambe Bay. Arnside Tower, a fortified pele tower dating from the 15th century, stands as a stoic reminder of the area’s turbulent past, its stone weathered by centuries of coastal air. The gentle slope of the hills behind Arnside offers panoramic views, the light often catching the water in a way that suggests liquid silver. A small railway station, a modest red-brick building, offers a convenient link to the wider world, its platforms frequented by those drawn to the quiet beauty of this corner of England.
