Historic Carlisle... 

In its 2000 year history, Carlisle has seen Celts, Romans, warring families and invading armies leave a legacy for 

you to explore. In Carlisle’s Historic Quarter, you will find a castle, cathedral and museums in a compact area, 

criss crossed with ancient thoroughfares. Within its confines, you can learn about the past, away from the hustle 

and bustle of city life. 

The magnificent Castle, founded in 1092 

by William the Conquerer’s son, stands as 

testament to years of feuding over the 

English-Scottish border. Once the prison 

of Mary Queen of Scots and home to the 

King’s Own Royal Border Regiment, you can 

explore its dungeons and labyrinths, find the 

Licking Stones and prisoners’ carvings and 

discover how it was captured by Bonnie 

Prince Charlie in 1745. 

Carlisle was once enclosed by mighty walls. 

The West Walls built from 1122 are all that 

remain but are a fine example of what these 

defences looked like. Carlisle’s commercial 

success is revealed in the Guildhall 

Museum. Built in 1407, it was once a 

meeting place of the medieval trade guilds 

whilst all the threads of Carlisle’s life and 

times are woven together in the displays of 

Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery. 

At the centre of the Historic Quarter is 

Carlisle Cathedral. Founded in 1122 and 

battered by centuries of warfare, it was built 

for the glory of God and prayers have been 

said there daily for nearly 900 years. The 

Cathedral contains many items of historical 

interest, including a display of silver and 

treasures illustrating the history of 

Christianity in Cumbria over the centuries, 

and a number of stained glasses dating 

back as far as the 14th century.

...alive with History 

Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery is an 

excellent choice for a great day out for all the 

family. The Old Tullie House is a Grade One 

listed building, dating back to the 17th century, 

surrounded by wonderful gardens and 

containing beautiful architectural features 

such as an original Jacobean staircase. 

The Old Town Hall, dating from 1717 and 

set in the city centre, is now home to our 

award winning Tourist Information Centre. 

It is an imposing Grade One listed building 

and serves over 180,000 visitors a year. 

Close to Carlisle’s Historic Quarter stands 

the Citadel, an impressive pair of oval 

towers guarding the southern entrance to 

the city. The ‘twin drum’ bastions were built 

by Henry VIII to reinforce national defences 

as a precaution against reprisal from Europe 

for the dissolution of the monasteries. Two 

new towers were added at the beginning of 

the 19th century and some original masonry 

from the 16th century still exist today. 

Carlisle’s railway station is also known as 

the Citadel station. It was built in 1847 by 

William Tite who was also responsible for 

the London Stock Exchange. 

Carlisle’s Historic Quarter continues to 

evolve to this day and will play an even 

greater role in the business, social and 

cultural life of Carlisle in the future.

Walk in the footsteps of legionnaires 

During the Roman occupation of Britain, most of the Northern lands were under the control of native British 

tribes. General Agricola, Britain’s first Roman Governor appointed in AD78, decreed to tame these ‘wild 

barbarians’ in the North. 

When Hadrian arrived in AD122, the 

barbarians were still at large, with some 

Pictish tribes (ancient inhabitants of 

Scotland) leading raids on Roman territory. 

In order to defend his empire’s boundaries 

and physically mark the frontier of the 

Roman Empire, Hadrian ordered the 

building of a mighty stone and turf barrier 

stretching across the border from the 

Solway Firth in the west and ending after 

73 miles (or 80 Roman ones) at Wallsend 

on the north east coast. 

When completed there were more than 

30 forts on the frontier with 80 milecastles 

and 160 turrets. Hadrian’s Wall is now one 

of the most important designated World 

Heritage Sites in existence. 

Today there are many major Roman sites 

and museums to discover along its route. 

You can explore the stunning landscape on 

foot or by bike, at your own pace or by 

using one of the recommended itineraries, 

taking in the fantastic atmosphere of 

market towns and quaint villages you 

will find along the way. 

The 84 mile Hadrian’s Wall Path National 

Trail allows you to walk in the footsteps 

of Roman Legionnaires on a fascinating 

journey across the North of England, 

taking in some of the country’s greatest 

archaeological monuments and relics from 

the time of Roman occupation. Using 

Carlisle as a base, you can explore many 

parts of the Wall.

....explore the Wall 

To the east of Carlisle, spectacular stretches 

of the Wall are still intact at Birdoswald 

Roman Fort and Visitor Centre including a 

fort, turret and milecastle. The Visitor Centre 

has interesting displays and reconstructions, 

tracing the history of the Wall via audiovisuals, 

strikingly life-like figures and excavated 

artifacts. The section of Wall leading to the 

east of Birdoswald is the longest continuous 

span still visible to this day. 

To the west of Carlisle, the Trail offers a 

pleasant walk through to Bowness on 

Solway providing spectacular views of 

Scotland and the Galloway Hills. Further 

down the coast, there are more Roman 

sites and artefacts to see. Senhouse Roman 

Museum stands on cliffs overlooking the 

Solway Firth, next to the Maryport Roman 

fort built by Marcus Agrippa. The museum 

displays the largest group of Roman military 

altar stones and inscriptions from any site 

in Britain and unique examples of Romano- 

British religious sculpture. 

The 174 mile Hadrian’s Cycleway gives 

cyclists the opportunity to enjoy these 

inspiring sites as it winds across the North 

of England from coast to coast, starting at 

Ravenglass Roman Fort or Glannaventa as 

the Romans called it. It contains the 

remains of a Roman bath house which are 

some of northern Britain’s tallest surviving 

Roman structures standing almost 13 feet 

high. For more information visit 

www.nationaltrail.co.uk/hadrianswall 

Alternatively, why not take a trip on the 

Hadrian’s Wall Bus and visit the main 

Roman sites or friendly market towns 

and villages along the Wall? The AD122 

runs between Carlisle and Newcastle and 

at certain times, heritage guides will travel 

with you on the bus.

Hidden Treasures 

The countryside around Historic Carlisle contains many hidden treasures in contrasting landscapes that are sure 

to delight. Nine miles east of Carlisle is Talkin Tarn Country Park, a 65-acre lake set amid 120 acres of farmland 

and woodland. The tarn is an ideal place for a quiet stroll through mature woodlands or an active day of bike 

riding and watersports. 

Talkin Tarn was formed by a glacier around 

10,000 years ago and is fed by underground 

streams. Many events are held throughout 

the year, such as activity days and craft fairs. 

In the pretty town of Brampton, St Martin’s 

Church contains one of the most exquisite 

sets of stained glass designed by Sir Edward 

Burne-Jones and executed in the William 

Morris studio. 

Nearby in rolling countryside, the beautiful 

Lanercost Priory founded by Augustinian 

canons in 1166 provides peace and 

tranquility for all. When completed in 1220, 

canons came from a priory in Norfolk, and 

remained for some 370 years until the 

Dissolution of the Monasteries. 

North of Hadrian’s Wall, the countryside was 

once a lawless place, scarred by battles 

between rival families called Border Reivers. 

Until the 17th century, reiving – raiding for 

cattle and sheep – was the only way to 

survive. Reivers held no allegiance to the 

Crown, only to their family surnames. When 

the reign of the Reivers ended, many of 

their descendants spread across the 

country and beyond. The first man on the 

moon was an Armstrong, descended from 

the Reivers of that name. 

Traversing this region and down to the 

Yorkshire Dales is the 72 mile Carlisle to 

Settle railway with 14 tunnels and 17 major 

viaducts spanning the ravines. On ‘steam 

days’ you can experience the sights, sounds 

and smells of the great Steam Age.

While every care has been taken in the accuracy of producing this list of events, the publisher is not liable for any errors or omissions that may inadvertently 

25 26 

occur. Details of events are subject to change at any time and should be checked with the venue before travelling. All details are correct as at December 2009.

Choosing your accommodation 

When looking for somewhere to stay, you need a rating system that 

you can trust. In order to be eligible for inclusion in this Guide, we 

at Carlisle insist that every accommodation establishment must 

have a valid national classification. 

Never has Quality meant so much 

All the accommodation featured in this guide has been quality 

assessed by either VisitBritain or the AA, or has recently 

applied for a rating and is awaiting assessment. Please be 

aware that ratings may change throughout the year. 

All accommodation is assessed and awarded one to five stars 

(highest) to reflect the overall quality of the experience. This 

includes comfort; the range and quality of facilities and food; 

welcome and service; and most importantly the cleanliness. 

When choosing your accommodation look for the 

Quality Rose, the official marque of the Enjoy 

England national tourist board rating scheme. 

Places that ‘go the extra mile’ to make your stay a special 

one, will be awarded a high star rating and hotels and guest 

accommodation may achieve a Gold or Silver award. 

Gold and Silver awards for Hotels 

and Guest Accommodation 

Silver Awards recognise exceptional 

quality at all levels and Gold Awards 

are given to the very ‘best of the best’. 

Higher star-rated accommodation tends to have more 

spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, and in hotels a higher 

staff to guest ratio, so service should be very attentive. 

At five star, you can really expect to be pampered in 

luxurious surroundings! 

Committed to improving quality in partnership with VisitBritain 

Welcome to Excellence 

Staff have been trained to provide high levels 

of service and customer care. 

In addition to VisitBritain and AA ratings, you will 

also see Quality Cumbria. This is a local initiative 

committed to raising accommodation standards. 

All have been assessed to an agreed minimum 

standard so you can book with confidence. 

Accommodation to suit you 

For serviced accommodation, there are two separate 

schemes – one for hotels and one for guest accommodation. 

Hotels have to be licensed, offer dinner at least 5 nights 

a week (unless categorised as a Metro Hotel) and have all 

rooms en suite or with private bathrooms. 

The different hotel categories are: Hotel, Small Hotel, 

Country House Hotel, Metro Hotel, Town House Hotel 

and Budget Hotel. 

Guest accommodation categories are: Guest 

Accommodation, Bed and Breakfasts, Guest Houses, Inns, 

Farmhouses and Restaurants with Rooms. They tend to be 

personally run by the owners. 

Guest accommodation owners have to provide certain 

additional facilities and services at the higher star levels. 

For self-catering accommodation, the layout and design 

of the accommodation and the range and quality of the 

kitchen equipment is assessed, as well as the quality and 

comfort of the bedrooms and bathrooms and most 

importantly, the cleanliness. 

Campus – Enjoy England’s campus scheme covers the 

universities and colleges that are able to accommodate visitors 

during the vacation periods on a bed and breakfast basis. 

Generally the rooms are en suite and there will be plenty of 

single rooms, so large groups will not present a problem. 

Hostels – Hostels provide safe, budget-priced 

accommodation for young people, families and larger 

groups and are star-rated. Higher rated accommodation 

often provides en suite rooms. 

Holiday, touring, and camping parks and holiday villages: 

Enjoy England awards star ratings reflecting the overall 

quality of the park from one to five stars – five stars being 

reserved for parks of exceptional quality.

Are you ready for 900 years of history 

at Carlisle’s best loved landmark? 

Dominating the city centre, Carlisle Castle has witnessed 

many conflicts and sieges in the notoriously turbulent 

western end of the Anglo-Scottish border. 

Famous for the confinement of Mary Queen of Scots 

after her flight from Scotland in 1568, follow in her 

footsteps and imagine her horrific ordeal in the ghastly 

dungeons. See where parched Jacobite prisoners sought 

moisture to stay alive from the legendary ‘licking stones’. 

Hear how Border Reiver Kinmont Willie Armstrong was 

also held captive but made a daring escape much to 

Days out worth talking about. 

When you become a member of English Heritage you can enjoy days out at 

over 400 historic sites in England for free, plus free or discounted entry to 

hundreds of events all year round. Sign up at any of our sites or for a list of 

all the member benefits visit www.english-heritage.org/uk/membership 

the fury of his captors. Be taken on a historical journey 

with chilling stories of life, death and survival at this 

fascinating medieval fortress. 

English Heritage has some of the most beautiful 

and captivating historic sites in Cumbria. Let your 

imagination run wild and imagine what life would have 

been like in days gone by at Stott Park Bobbin Mill, 

Furness Abbey and Lanercost Priory to name just a few.
