Millom is a small coastal town situated in the most southerly part in Copeland district. It is separated from the Furness peninsular by the Duddon Estuary and is bounded to the west by the Irish Sea.
Historically, the town was founded on the discovery of iron ore and the supporting industry. Nowadays most of the population commute to Barrow in Furness or the Sellafield nuclear plant. There is a small industrial estate on the outskirts of the town; however the main industries within the area are agriculture an expanding tourist trade. The town has two nature reserves and the Duddon estuary is a sight of Special Scientific Interest.
Close to the town is HM Prison Haverigg, the only prison in the County.
Millom Fire Station is situated close to the centre of the town. The station houses two fire engines which are crewed by 18 retained firefighters. The A595 trunk road passes through the station area and this can lead to problems with road traffic collisions and the station also responds to a significant number of calls to the prison at Haverigg each year.
Like all other fire stations the staff are actively involved in a wide range of community safety activities. If you want any help or advice on safety issues contact Michael Dobson, the Community Safety Coordinator.
