I quite like Barrow, especially if you get out to Walney Island, which is quite romantic, in a wild windswept sort of way. I mean, sure, if you look one way you get the Vickers yard looking loomy, but if you look the other way you get magnificent views up into the Lake District, and the Irish Sea rolling in, and splendid sunsets.
