Currock Methodist Church being converted to flats
The church closed in 2006 - a dwindling congregation had made it unviable. The redevelopment, containing 14 flats, is now called Methodist Court.
This part of the building dates from the 1930s. It was an extension to the original church built in 1908, which then became the church hall.

The case of the disappearing play equipment
In early 2014, Carlisle City Council made the controversial decision to remove all equipment from 21 play areas, because maintenance was too expensive. Instead, money was to be invested in improvements at the more popular parks.
This view is at Toronto Park, a small green space in Currock (looking towards the back of a row of garages, behind Blackwell Road).

Chinese Takeaway
This brightly coloured shop is at the corner of Millholme Avenue and Blackwell Road. There used to be more decoration on the fence, but it has taken a bit of a kicking.
