Empty Throne


I visited the Dock Museum today and noticed that the throne from the Ship Inn at Piel Island is on display. Let's hope this is a temporary home for it and its back where it belongs as soon as possible. I see the local council have an advert on their website for a new King of Piel and this leads me to think that they are looking at this as a revenue earner. Nothing wrong with that in principal as long as it doesn’t lead to local people being priced out as customers and as prospective tenants after all this Island does belong to the people of Barrow.
