Local History and Heritage
Carlisle is steeped in history - literally. Wherever you go in
the city centre, you are walking in the footsteps of Brigantian
tribes, Roman soldiers, early missionaries, medieval traders,
Cromwellian troops, Jacobite rebels and countless generations of
ordinary people that once occupied this great Border city. To
