If proof were needed that Barrow in Furness is STILL in the county of Lancashire then surely it comes in the form of the photograph you see on the left . The wife and I spotted it on the way in to Ulverston at the weekend pointing the way to Barrow down the Coast Road as Barrovians call it .Now this sign would have been sanctioned by CUMBRIA county council but it clearly shows the RED ROSE of Lancashire .So it beggers the question should people in Barrow put LANCASHIRE on there post or Administrative county of Cumbria

On 27th November 1295 the first elected representatives from Lancashire were summoned by King Edward I to attend Parliament at Westminster, this was later to be know as the Model Parliament and was the beginning of democracy in Britain. Seven hundred years later, on 27th November 1995, Peter Thurnham, the MP for Bolton NE, tabled an Early Day Motion in the House of Commons calling on all local authorities to signpost the boundaries of Lancashire and other historic counties. Because of its historic connections, this date has been adopted as Lancashire Day, and was proclaimed as such throughout the county on 27th November 1996. There was excellent coverage on radio and television and in most of the local newspapers throughout the county. As an act of unity, and no matter where they were in the world, Lancastrians were asked to raise their glasses at 9pm GMT and drink the Loyal Toast to "The Queen, Duke of Lancaster".
