reclamation   Morecambe Bay
	Reclamation in Morecambe Bay The reclaiming of Morecambe Bay in Lancashire is at length about to be carried into effect. The right has been purchased from the Admiralty by Messrs. Brogden and Co. and the undertaking will be carried out conjointly with the formation of the Ulverstone and the Lancaster Railway (sic). The rivers Crake and Leven will be confined to a fixed channel, and the bay will no doubt be left in a great measure to silt up. This vast tract, which extends from Tridlea-point (near to the Ulversone Canal foot) to Greenodd, comprises an area of about 145,000 acres.
