Arriving at Carlisle train station, we had an hour to look round the town before our
train was due to leave.
Places to visit:
Carlisle
Cathedral
The Cathedral
was founded as an Augustinian Priory and became a cathedral in 1133. It is the second smallest of England’s
ancient cathedrals.
Carlisle
Castle
The
castle is located near the ruins of Hadrian’s Wall and, at over 900 years old, has been the centre of many wars and invasions. Because of the time
restrictions, we didn’t go inside the castle, but I’d love to come back and
visit and also revisit Hadrian’s Wall.
