| After a brief visit to a very dank and overcast Lake District where the mountain-tops were lost in the mist we decided to turn off the motorway to take alook at the revamped Midland Hotel at Morecambe. This had featured a couple of times on TV including a piece in 'The Culture Show'.
We were not disappointed by the building itself however the coffee table book of photographs that was on sale in the lobby, which we purchased immediately on arrival, proved to be a big disappointment as it contained images of how it used to look not how it is now. My wife successfully claimed her money back in a refund. |

Immediately opposite the hotel lies the original Morecambe mainline railway terminus building. Sadly it is all thats left of a once complete station. |
