Maryport Directory, 1811

MARYPORT is a neat, modern, well-built sea port, and situated at the mouth of the river Ellen . The streets are open, and the situation healthy. It has a weekly market on Fridays. Within these last 50 years this place has risen to importance; being, before that period, the resort of a few miserable fishermen, who had a few huts along the beach. The coal trade was the chief staple of this part of the county, and during the present war, the shipping has embarked much in the transport and timber trade. The works of an iron furnace, ship-building, salt-works, a pottery, a glass-house, a cotton mill, and extensive muslin-manufactories, (carried on by Messrs. Bouch and Tolson), have added much to its population. But, unfortunately, about a year ago, the cotton mill stopped, which has been of great injury to the town, This place is greatly resorted to in the season for sea bathing; and the herring and white fishing is here carried on to a considerable extent.
