History
Prehistory
This part of the west Cumbrian coastline has a very long history. The area that today forms Mawbray would have been uninhabitable by humans until around 11,000 BC, as it was covered in ice sheets from the last ice age. Archaeological evidence from Mawbray and the surrounding area shows clear evidence of human activity and habitation as early as 4000 BC, as a ditched enclosure with large post-holes in an 'annexe' was excavated at nearby Plasketlands, as has been identified as being from the early Neolithic period. The archaeologist in charge of the expedition, R. H. Bewley, called the find their "best evidence for permanent settlement" on the Solway Plain. On the Moss at nearby Salta, a Bronze Age rapier (a kind of sword) was discovered in the 1980s, and is believed to have been crafted as early as 1100 BC, providing further evidence of pre-Roman occupation.

Dance The Night
by: MayberryThere she goes walking down the stairs
Lipsticks on and she's ready to go
She slows down in hesitation, yeah
But i let her know she's beautiful
But tonight this town is ours
They'll never bring me down down hold me down
We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast
And i'll spend the night
They're never gonna slow slow slow us down
We'll light a match and burn this city down
And this is my heart and this is my soul
And i'll dance the night with the girl i love the most
And i don't care if we ever leave
Its everything a dream could be
Her hands around my neck
My hands are at her waist
As all of our plans fall into place
But tonight this town is ours
They'll never bring me down down hold me down
We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast
And i'll spend the night
They're never gonna slow slow slow us down
We'll light a match and burn this city down
And this is my heart and this is my soul
And i'll dance the night with the girl i love the most
With the girl i love the most, Oh baby hold on tight lets make this right.
They'll never bring me down down hold me down
We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast

We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast
And i'll spend the night
