Streets of Carlisle

Carlisle was originally established in the Roman era to supply the military along the wall. It became important because of it being close to Scotland in the middle ages. During the industrial age it became a mill town and still serves as the hub of activity in the Cumbria area.

Carlisle cathedral, started to be built in 1123.

Long Lane. No, seriously...its called Long Lane.


This place, in 1831, was built by Woodrow Wilson's grandfather the Rev Thomas Woodrow.
