Blackbank

England

Blackbank straddles the English side of the Anglo-Scottish border in Cumbria, three kilometres from Springfield and four from Gretna Green. Accessed via the A74(M) motorway linking Glasgow to Carlisle, it serves as a key transit point for cross-border traffic, with local connections via the A7 to Longtown. The area benefits from approximately 50 public EV charging points. Blackbank holds the distinction of being among the first English settlements motorists reach when travelling south from Scotland on the main A74(M) route.
