Welcome to the new digital Solway Buzz!
For over two decades, the Solway Buzz served as the trusted heartbeat of our community, capturing the stories, milestones, and daily life of our unique corner of the Solway coast. When the print edition closed its final chapter, it left behind an irreplaceable record of our local history. Recognising its immense value, the Town Council has proudly stepped in to safeguard this vital legacy. The extensive Solway Buzz archives are fully digitised and preserved, ensuring our shared heritage remains safe and accessible for generations to come. Today, we are pleased to continue that proud tradition of local storytelling through this community website. Welcome to your new digital hub — a place to explore our rich history through our legacy gallery, keep up with local events, discover independent businesses, and share the ongoing stories that keep our community vibrant, connected, and informed.
