The A590 also routes to the northeast meeting Dalton-in-Furness, circa 2 miles away and continues on to Ulverston, 7 miles away and then into the southern boundaries of the Lake District National Park, around 11 miles to the north.
The A590 connects with the A595 around 2 miles away from the subject property which travels around the Duddon Estuary, being an alternative route into the south Lake District National Park and also around to Millom, 21 miles away, Sellafield which is 35 miles to the northwest and Whitehaven and Workington, 43 and 51 miles away respectively.
