AdBlue repair in Whitehaven
A port on the north-west coast of Cumbria, Whitehaven lies 6 km outside the Lake District National Park and 56 km south-west of Carlisle. Its growth came from coal: the Lowther family exploited the extensive coal measures and exported coal through the harbour from the 17th century, and the prosperity that followed produced a Georgian planned town, which has left more than 170 listed buildings. The built-up area had 22,945 residents in 2021, and the parish, which also includes Sandwith, had 24,040. Whitehaven is in the CA28 postcode district. Apart from Workington, 11.2 km away, the nearest towns are a long way off: Ulverston is 50 km, Barrow-in-Furness 52.2 km and Penrith 54.7 km. That distance matters for a diesel van or car, because the nearest motorway services are more than 50 km away.
