The Victorian seaside town of Morecambe is probably best known as the birthplace of Eric Morecambe (of the comedy duo Morecambe and Wise), and of Dame Thora Hird. There is a statue commemorating Eric Morecambe on the recently refurbished promenade. Local Morecambe estate agents say currently the town is undergoing a renaissance, with massive environmental and amenity improvements underway. A public art project centred on the promenade and stone jetty has won national acclaim for its originality and quality, while the restoration of the Midland Hotel and planned development of the adjacent 12 acre 'central promenade' site is key to a vibrant new future for the town. There is a good selection of property for sale in Morecambe, including detached bungalows, developments of modern family homes, traditional semi-detached houses and cottages built during the early 19th century.
