This was Etterby House, belonging to the Youth Hostels Association (see Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youth_Hostels_Association_(England_%26_Wales) ) from 1953 to 1997. It has since been converted to several individual properties, and renamed Eden Bank. Before being purchased by the YHA, it had been a private residence (with fishing rights) - in 1861 it was occupied by George Relph, magistrate and draper (Carlisle Encyclopaedia http://www.carlisleshistory.co.uk/page27.htm ).
