  CARLISLE CASTLE
  Carlisle Castle, a historic fortress that has stood tall in the heart of the city for over nine centuries, continues to be a symbol of strength and resilience. Throughout its long history, it served as a fully functional stronghold until relatively recent times. Today, Carlisle Castle offers visitors a fascinating glimpse into its storied past through a range of captivating attractions. The castle’s visitor experience is diverse and engaging, with exhibits and displays that bring its extensive history to life. From interactive exhibits that transport you back in time to informative displays that shed light on significant events, there is something for everyone to enjoy and learn from at Carlisle Castle.

  CARLISLE
  Carlisle has a rich and fascinating history that dates back to its origins as a Roman settlement. Established to serve the forts along Hadrian’s Wall, the city played an important role in the defense of the northern frontier of the Roman Empire. During the Middle Ages, Carlisle gained strategic significance due to its proximity to the Kingdom of Scotland. It became a vital military stronghold, and one of its most iconic landmarks, Carlisle Castle, was constructed in 1092 by William Rufus. The castle still stands today and offers visitors a glimpse into its storied past. Notably, it served as a prison for Mary, Queen of Scots in 1568. In addition to its military importance, Carlisle also developed religious significance during this period. In the early 12th century, Henry I granted permission for the establishment of a priory within the city. This priory later became known as Carlisle Cathedral when it gained city status with the formation of its diocese in 1133. Today, visitors can explore Carlisle Cathedral and admire its stunning architecture while reflecting on centuries of religious heritage. The cathedral stands as a testament to both spiritual devotion and architectural excellence.

  PENRITH
  Penrith was once the capital of Cumbria. The attractive town is the hub of the Eden Valley. It is now an important shopping centre, with a good mix of traditional shops and sophisticated arcades. Leading off Penrith’s main streets are many old yard entrances with interesting inscriptions on the lintels.

  A large town acting as a regional centre for the eastern Lake District, Penrith lies just outside the National Park. The nearest lake is Ullswater. Just 6 miles to the south-west this is the Lake District’s second largest lake and offers a variety of watersports and other outdoor activities.

  SOLWAY FIRTH
  Solway Firth forms part of the border between England and Scotland. Located close to Carlisle, the fifth looks out towards Dumfries & Galloway.

  With large areas of salt & mudflats Solway Firth is a great place to see a wide variety of wildlife, specifically birds.

  SCOTTISH BORDERS
  The Scottish Borders are in the eastern part of the Southern Uplands.

  The region is hilly and largely rural, with the River Tweed flowing west to east through it. The highest hill in the region is Broad Law in the Manor Hills. In the east of the region, the area that borders the River Tweed is flat and is known as ‘The Merse’. The Tweed and its tributaries drain the entire region with the river flowing into the North Sea at Berwick-upon-Tweed in Northumberland, and forming the border with England for the last twenty miles or so of its length.

  NORTHUMBERLAND
  The county of Northumberland included Newcastle upon Tyne until 1400, when the city became a county of itself. Northumberland expanded greatly in the Tudor period.

  Lying on the Anglo-Scottish border, Northumberland has been the site of a number of battles. The county is noted for its undeveloped landscape of high moorland, now largely protected as the Northumberland National Park. Northumberland is the least densely populated county in England, with only 62 people per square kilometre.
