THE GEORGE HOTEL - Walney Island 103, Central Drive, Walney-Island, Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, LA14 3HZ, Tel: (01229) 471442. See also: Vickerstown
The George officially opened it's doors for business during 1916, but controversially was not granted a license until after 1918, even then the license granted was only done so with many restrictions, because it was said that drunkenness would affect yard workers production, which was needed to produce munitions for the war effort. The George along with the Alfred was sold to Thompson's during 1920. Until recent years the George had it's own 'well kept' bowling green, but has now been left out to grass and has been put up for sale with planning permission for a small number of houses. See Central Drive for more.
