Blitterlees

Blitterlees is a small hamlet in the parish of Holme Low, one mile south of Silloth in Cumbria, United Kingdom.

[2] During the Roman period, the coast around present-day Blitterlees was fortified, as a series of milefortlets were built along the Solway plain, extending beyond the western end of Hadrian's Wall.

[4] The station was the terminus of the Carlisle and Silloth Bay railway, a single-track line which opened in 1856 and closed with the Beeching Axe in 1965.

There is a local bus service which calls at Blitterlees approximately once every two hours in either direction, heading north to Silloth or southbound to Maryport via Mawbray, Beckfoot, and Allonby.

[7] To the south of Blitterlees, just north of the hamlet of Beckfoot, is Bank Mill Nurseries, a garden centre with a restaurant, play area, and animal sanctuary.
