The Hoad and the Moon

Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle,
The Hoad jumped over the moon………

Hoad Monument is Ulverston’s most famous landmark. Erected in 1850 upon Hoad Hill, it commemorates Sir John Barrow, a founder member of the Royal Geographical Society and an intrepid explorer. The Hoad Monument – also sometimes referred to as the Sir John Barrow Monument – is a replica of Eddystone Lighthouse.
