Margaret Creighton Gardens
Thousands of crocus bulbs were planted here in 2007 by Carlisle Housing Association, as a neighbourhood regeneration project. They were put in with a mechanised planter.
The properties were built as housing for the elderly in 1932, and named after the wife of former mayor Archibald Creighton.
