Cox first visited Lancaster in July 1834 and returned a year later and again in 1840. From 1835 and 1847 he produced a great many watercolours and oils based on his impressions of the expansive coastal stretch. The sands that extend across the head of Morecambe Bay are indiscriminately called 'Lancaster Sands' and 'Ulverston Sands': as the town of Ulverston is near the west portion of the sands, the east portion is more correctly termed Lancaster Sands.
