Broughton-in-Furness Worktop Information

Broughton-in-Furness is a small market town in Westmorland and Furness, Cumbria, on the south-western boundary of the Lake District National Park, about 8 miles north of Barrow-in-Furness and at the meeting of the Duddon valley and the Lickle valley. The LA20 postcode covers the town and the surrounding rural area. The town had a population of 529 at the 2011 Census, making it one of the smallest market towns in England. It is mentioned in the Domesday Book as one of the townships of the Manor of Hougun held by Tostig Godwinson, Earl of Northumbria. The market charter dates to 1593 and the square retains its Georgian character with a market building and stocks. The town sits on the south-western edge of the Lake District National Park and many of the outer LA20 properties are within the National Park boundary. Properties in the area include a uniquely situated bothy cottage used successfully as a holiday let, offering views across the fells. The wider LA20 rural area covers the Duddon valley, Dunnerdale, and the Furness Fells, some of the most remote and atmospheric countryside in the Lake District.

Types of Materials found in Broughton-in-Furness

The small residential stock in the town itself and the standard housing in the outer LA20 settlements are the mainstream quartz market. Broughton has a very limited residential stock and the quartz market here is modest in scale. Installed prices run from around £297 to £465 per square metre. Barrow-in-Furness businesses cover LA20 from the south in around 20 minutes. The Duddon valley and Dunnerdale farmhouses, the Furness Fells stone cottages, and any holiday let property in the outer LA20 Lake District National Park area are where granite finds its market. Properties here are often stone-built with thick walls and a Lakeland character that consistently favours natural stone. Installed granite costs between £281 and £447 per square metre. The outer LA20 area covers the Duddon valley, Dunnerdale, and the Furness Fells, some of the most remote and atmospheric countryside in the Lake District National Park. William Wordsworth wrote a sonnet sequence about the River Duddon in 1820. Farmhouses and fell-side cottages here have a Lakeland vernacular character that suits granite or local slate in kitchen renovation over any engineered alternative.
