Vickerstown is an area of Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, England, covered by the wards of Walney North and Walney South. It is an example of a model village built for workers by a company needing to expand, having been constructed in the early 20th century by Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering. Vickerstown contains two Conservation Areas and is home to the majority of the population of Walney Island. (en) Vickerstown is een dorp op Walney Island, een onderdeel van de stad Barrow-in-Furness in het graafschap Cumbria. Het dorp vormt de belangrijkste nederzetting op het eiland en is middels de Jubilee Bridge met het vasteland van Barrow verbonden. Het dankt zijn naam aan de wapenfabrikant , die het dorp omstreeks 1900 bouwde als huisvesting voor zijn werknemers. Vickerstown is een typisch voorbeeld van een gepland dorp: het bestaat uit rechte straten in een logisch patroon. (nl) |
