Bridge number 10

Parton was originally a fishing community and it was cut off from the sea when the Whitehaven Junction Railway was opened in 1847. Several small bridges were constructed to allow passage from the village to the shore. This one is bridge number 10, with the national identifier CBC2/10 (Carnforth-Barrow-Carlisle section 2 bridge number 10). The signal number BY22R is for the down (northbound) line towards Carlisle and is controlled from Bransty Signalbox at Whitehaven. The signal head is angled to allow adequate sighting on this sharply curved section of track.

St Bridget's Church, Moresby

St Bridget's is the parish church of Moresby, located near Moresby Hall, just north of Parton. The present church was built in 1822, replacing an earlier 13th century church here - the ancient chancel arch of the old church stands in the churchyard. The church is on the site of a former Roman camp, known as Gabrosentum. St Bridget's Church is Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England.
