Description
Nowhere is a lounge bar located on Queen Street in the heart of Morecambe, a seaside town situated on Morecambe Bay, Lancashire. The town has beautiful beaches and an award-winning promenade and is one of the best places in the UK for high adrenaline outdoor activities such as sailing, paragliding, parachuting and windsurfing. Morcambe is within easy reach of the historic city of Lancaster and the Lake District National Park. It has recently been subject to much investment and regeneration: the Eden Project North is scheduled to open on Morcambe Promenade in 2028 and is expected to revitalise the town by attracting visitors, creating jobs and boosting the local economy. The town is served by Junction 34 of the M6 motorway (via the A683) and has an excellent public transport system which includes Morecambe train station and the Isle of Man ferry terminal. Nowhere is a substantial, mid-terrace property over three storeys. It is of brick construction under a pitched slate roof and briefly comprises:
