Background
The original house dates from circa 1770 and once belonged to the Wordsworth family, being the former home for a while to the young William Wordsworth.
Whitehaven has a strong history particularly in connection with its port and provides many examples of fine Georgian architecture together with an attractive harbour area. Located in close proximity to the Lake District National Park, the town which is the administration centre for Copeland Borough has a resident population of 25,500 people. The subject premises are ideally located to benefit from the significant trade potential of the nearby Sellafield site.
