High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Roa Island lies just over half a mile (1 km) south of the village of Rampside at the southernmost point of the Furness Peninsula in Cumbria, though formerly in the area of Lancashire north of the sands. It is located at 54°5?N 3°10?W? / ?54.083°N 3.167°W? / 54.083; -3.167 (OS grid ref. SD 233650). It is one of the Islands of Furness in northern England. It has an area of about 30 acres (12 ha). For local government purposes Roa Island is within the Borough of Barrow-in-Furness. The islands population stands at around 100, making it the 16th most populated island in England. Until 1847 Roa Island was a true island, being accessible only by boat, or on foot across the sands at low tide. John Abel Smith, a London banker, bought Roa in 1840. He built a causeway to the mainland, completed in 1846, and an 810 foot (247 m) deep-water pier known as Piel Pier from where steamers sailed to Fleetwood.
