Sir James Ramsden: Visionary Industrialist and Town Planner of Barrow-in-Furness (1822-1896) This evocative photograph captures the likeness of Sir James Ramsden, an illustrious figure in the history of Barrow-in-Furness. Born in 1822, Ramsden's industrious spirit and innovative mind set him apart from his contemporaries. He played a pivotal role in the development of this once sleepy Cumbrian town, transforming it into a thriving industrial hub. Ramsden's influence began in the mid-19th century when he recognized the potential of Barrow-in-Furness's natural resources and geographical location. He spearheaded the establishment of various ironworks and shipbuilding yards, attracting a workforce and fostering a community. His vision extended beyond economic growth, as he also planned the town's layout, ensuring a well-organized and functional infrastructure. In recognition of his invaluable contributions, Ramsden was rewarded with the esteemed title of Mayor in 1876. The townspeople, grateful for his leadership and foresight, further honored him by erecting this magnificent statue in his likeness. The statue, a symbol of Barrow-in-Furness's rich history, stands as a testament to Sir James Ramsden's enduring legacy. This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, captures the essence of a man who left an indelible mark on the town and its people. Sir James Ramsden's vision and determination transformed Barrow-in-Furness from a small fishing village into a bustling industrial town, forever etching his name into the annals of history.
