Excessive rain has caused part of the wall along my route to work to collapse, resulting in a detour along Cavendish Terrace. The primary location for some of the most beautiful houses in Carlisle, it’s also the route taken by Bonnie Prince Charlie as he marched victoriously into Carlisle in 1745 celebrated with “a hundred pipers an ‘a, an ‘a ”
It’s incredible to think that although the view to the East is blighted by the Civic Centre, the view to the West of the Castle and Cathedral standing proudly against the skyline has changed little in the intervening centuries
