In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Milton like this:
MILTON, a railway station in Cumberland; on the Newcastle and Carlisle railway, 10 miles E by N of Carlisle. It has a post office under Carlisle, and a telegraph office; and it serves for Brampton.
Milton is now part of CUMBERLAND Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how CUMBERLAND has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Milton itself, go to Statistics.
