Morecambe in Lancashire

Morecambe is a coastal town in Lancashire. It is located on the southern coast of Morecambe Bay, after which it is named.

The first use of the name was by John Whitaker in his History of Manchester (1771), when he refers to the “æstury of Moricambe”. It next appears four years later in Antiquities of Furness, where the bay is described as “the Bay of Morecambe”.

Morecambe was a thriving seaside resort in the mid-20th century. While the resort of Blackpool attracted holiday-makers predominantly from the Lancashire mill towns, Morecambe had more visitors from Yorkshire (due to its railway connection) and Scotland. Mill workers from Bradford and further afield in West Yorkshire would holiday at Morecambe, with some retiring there. This gave Morecambe the nickname “Bradford on Sea”. Between 1956 and 1989, it was the home of the Miss Great Britain beauty contest.

Morecambe and Alan Bennett

The Yorkshire playwright and author Alan Bennett has enjoyed a long association with Morecambe and has often referred to the town in his work and writing. One of his early TV plays, Sunset Across the Bay (1975), is about a couple from Leeds who retire to Morecambe, leaving their old home with the words “Bye bye, mucky Leeds!” He based the play on memories of the many holidays he spent in Morecambe with his parents. In his essay “Written on the Body”, collected in Untold Stories (2005), he even suggests that his association with the town is pre-natal: “I had been in a boarding house that I was conceived, sometime over the August Bank Holiday of 1933 at Morecambe or Filey.” In the same collection, Bennett pays tribute to the Morecambe-born actress Thora Hird in the essays Last of the Sun, about the final play he wrote for her, and “Thora Hird 1911–2003”, a memoir of the work they had done together since the 1960s. Earlier in the book, he discusses his maternal aunt Kathleen, who married in Morecambe and lived there until her death in 1974.
