Salta, Cumbria history

---

The name “Salta” comes from Old English “sēalt-tir”, meaning “salt land” In Anglo-Saxon times, salt making was a major industry on the Solway coast. Bronze Age rapier (a kind of sword) was discovered in the 1980s proving that the area was settled by ancient Britons millennia ago. Salta participated in a system called “seawake”, which was a night watch to guard the coast against incursions by the Scots.
