Flood wall art trail, Sands Centre
Following extensive flooding in Carlisle in January 2005, flood alleviation measures costing £38m were implemented. As well as offering protection, the works were designed to enhance footpaths, cycleways and wildlife habitats. The Environment Agency also commissioned an art work of 40 small enamel plaques, with locally themed designs. These were sited on the flood walls to create a riverside trail, which is shown on the map pictured above. The plaque to the right is 'Flowering rush' by artist Alison White. For further information, see art project manager's website http://cathynewbery.co.uk/portfolio/art-on-the-wall/ .
Sadly, the defences could not hold back the next extreme flood which occurred in December 2015. The water got behind this wall and the leisure centre suffered some damage.
