Silloth Lifeboat Station

Silloth Lifeboat Station is located at the end of Lawn Terrace, in Silloth, a port town sitting on the Solway Firth, approximately 20 miles (32 km) due west of Carlisle, on the north west coast of Cumbria. An Inshore lifeboat was first stationed in Silloth by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) in 1860. The station currently operates a B-class (Atlantic 85) Inshore lifeboat, Elaine and Don Wilkinson (B-828), on station since 2008.
