What is recorded here

This green commemorative plaque records: The Albion Hotel. Built about 1810 originally as a house for a Captain Greenwood, mariner and ship owner. On his death in 1854 control passed to his son-in-law Richard Bush, who turned the house into Bush's Albion Hotel as shipping declined. Under various owners it has remained a hotel ever since. Recorded plaque organisation: Arnside Parish Council.

Captain Robert Greenwood was a mariner and ship owner who built the Albion Hotel around 1810 as his residence; Richard Bush, Greenwood's son-in-law, transformed it into a hotel in 1854, adapting to the decline of local shipping.
