Carlisle is Cumbria’s only city, it is a lovely friendly and vibrant place and its historic ambience makes it a thrilling cultural delight and its Victorian architecture adds an air of pure elegance.
|
Stroll past the pretty red sandstone houses, cobbled streets. With a great selection of restaurants, entertainment venues and a year round programme of events Carlisle is simply buzzing with life. Visit the impressive Carlisle Castle, the great medieval fortress that has watched over the city for over 900 years. Impressive, gloomy and forbidding, the castle amply repays those wishing to explore its bloody past and enjoy panoramic views over the city and stunning countryside. Step back in time and imagine what life was like centuries ago as you explore the castle’s imposing dungeons and labyrinths. If you are interested in Churches, then Carlisle Cathedral, founded in 1122 and battered by centuries of warfare, is a must. Or experience the rum trade era of slaves, where pirates are brought back to life.
Carlisle also occupies a unique position as the gateway to the western stretch of the 80-mile long Hadrian’s Wall and Vindolanda, occupied from the late 1st century AD, now a World Heritage Site. It contains both a Roman army fort and the remains of a town, famous for its quantities of writings on wooden tablets consisting of letters from army officers dating back from AD90 to 125.
