Arnside is a modest sized, unspoilt, holiday resort on the estuary where the River Kent enters Morecambe Bay.
It is a haven for birds, and the surrounding countryside contains a wealth of flora and fauna. Here is the National Trust owned Arnside Knott, which with neighbouring Silverdale in Lancashire, has done much to secure the designation of 'Area of Oustanding Natural Beauty'.
A landscape of special importance straddling the boundary of Cumbria and Lancashire. The Limestone geology of the area provides a complex mosaic of habitats. Details of the conservation projects, the Limestone Heritage Project, and the local Landscape Tru www.arnsidesilverdaleaonb.org.uk
