| Date Posted: | Holme Island has a long history, with roman archaelogical remains being found. It is connected to the mainland by a short causeway. The railway line passes very close by. There is a house on the island and an imitation roman temple. The island is privately owned. http://www.bbc.co.uk/cumbria/content/articles/2006/08/04/islands_holme_2006_feature.shtml https://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/18422109.nostalgia-column-history-holme-island/ | |
