CLEATOR

Locally known as’ Little Ireland’, Cleator expanded in tandem with the iron ore industry. In the mid-19th century it enjoyed the benefits of having a largely Irish workforce comprising immigrants escaping from the devastating potato famine. It lies on a former Roman road and its true origins can be traced back to at least the 12th century.
