Flimby Cumbria Map

About Flimby

Flimby, a Cumbrian village, draws its character from the edge of the Solway Firth. It lies 3.1 km south-south-west of Maryport (from Maryport: bearing 202°T, OS grid NY 022 336), and is situated south-west of Fothergill village. The air here often carries the faint, briny tang of the nearby sea, a constant reminder of its coastal proximity, and the low, enduring hills to the east frame the sky with a soft, grey-blue light. Once, Flimby's fortunes were tied to the salt marshes and the quiet industry of the land, a heritage that still hums beneath the surface of its everyday life. The village green, a modest expanse, has seen generations of children at play, the grass worn smooth in places by the persistent tread of time and feet.
