Welcome to Cardurnock

Cardurnock is a small village located in the northern part of Cumbria, England. It is situated on the Solway Firth, which is a large estuary that separates England from Scotland. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a popular destination for tourists who enjoy hiking, cycling, and birdwatching. The village has a rich history and is home to several historic buildings, including St. Bartholomew's Church, which dates back to the 12th century.

One of the main attractions in Cardurnock is the Solway Aviation Museum, which is located just outside the village. The museum is dedicated to the history of aviation in the Solway area and features a collection of aircraft, engines, and other aviation-related artifacts. Visitors can learn about the role that the Solway Firth played in the development of aviation and see some of the planes that were used in the area during World War II.

Cardurnock is also home to several local businesses, including a pub, a post office, and a small convenience store. The village has a strong sense of community, and residents often come together for events and activities throughout the year. The village is a peaceful and picturesque place to live, and its location on the Solway Firth makes it an ideal destination for anyone who enjoys outdoor activities and natural beauty.
