Natural Gas Discovery 1985: I would question the date of this discovery as I was employed on the construction of the Barrow gas terminal myself and this was spring of 1983. Given all the necessary planning etc... I would suggest that the gas field was discovered some years before 1983 or somebody had terrific foresight. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phil Scrutinator (talk • contribs) 18:34, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Merge
I believe it would be better to merge this article with Barrow-in-Furness (the main settlement) to lack confusion, a nd make things simpler. An example of such a merge is the Preston article, which has information on the city and district/ borough in one. Please leave your comments below. Stevvvv4444 (talk) 15:50, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
- There's been no discussion or follow up on this so I'll tentatively remove the proposed merger thing from both. I don't particularly feel that it is particularly beneficial: for one thing, the two areas are slightly different; and there clearly has not been a swell of support for the merge. --Pretty Green (talk) 16:44, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
- It appears to fail every criteria (except perhaps having a small number of parishes) at WP:UKDISTRICTS to be combined, see User:Crouch, Swale/District split#Others. In any case Preston, Lancashire/City of Preston, Lancashire are now separate articles and the district is going to be abolished and a parish created so its likely somewhat moot anyway.
