Barrow-in-Furness is an industrial town and port in Cumbria, North West England. It is known for its shipbuilding and steel-making industries. The town, often simply known as Barrow, is situated at the tip of the Furness peninsula. Barrow is the second largest settlement in Cumbria, the seventh largest on the Irish Sea coast, and the nineteenth largest in North West England. Barrow forms the overwhelming amount of territory of the wider Borough of Barrow-in-Furness. Barrow is located just over 220 miles north-west of London and 60 miles south of the Scottish border. Many areas of the town have seen regeneration in the 1990s, and on 28 September 2007 Barrow's £200 million Dockland regeneration project began. Due to be completed by 2020, the project includes a new 'Barrow Marina Village' which will incorporate a £8 million 400 berth marina, 600 homes, restaurants, shops, hotels and a new state of the art bridge across Cavendish Dock. A large watersports centre is also being built, with the possibility of a cruise ship terminal. The first part of the 'Waterfront' to be completed will be the three business parks that will provide employment for over 1,500 people. The type of businesses moving in are: manufacturing (25.6%), distribution and hotels (21%), public administration, education and health (24.4%), banking and finance (9%).
