Poulton-le-Sands
Poulton-le-Sands is one of three small villages that combined to create Morecambe, Lancashire, England, the other two being Torrisholme and Bare. A local board of health was established in 1852, which, taking its name from Morecambe Bay, became the borough of Morecambe in 1902.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Townships: Poulton, Bare and Torrisholme )〕
Poulton is known locally for its many murals which depict the origin of Poulton as a fishing village.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fisherman mural - Back Green Street, Morecambe, Lancashire, UK. - Murals on Waymarking.com )〕 Artist Patricia Haskey-Knowles completed several of these in the Morecambe Bay area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Patricia Haskey )〕
Poulton was first mentioned in the Domesday Book as ''Poltune''. It later became Poulton and remained this way for a number of centuries. The name 'Poulton' is likely a combination of Old English ''pull'' or ''pōl'', meaning 'pool' and ''tūn'' meaning 'farmstead'.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Poulton - Oxford Reference )〕 It was towards the end of the eighteenth or the beginning of the nineteenth century that the ''Le-Sands'' was added. This was to distinguish it from another Poulton located near Blackpool which is now Poulton-le-Fylde.
