Access control on the Caldew Cycleway
Hopefully sufficient to deter motor bikes! Thomas Street is to the left. On the right is a flood wall to protect the housing from flooding by the River Caldew.

The Cumbria Way, Dentonholme
This unimaginatively designed bleak urban space is the route of the Caldew Cycleway and The Cumbria Way, alongside the high flood defence barrier which hides the River Caldew from view (next photograph Image).

Caldew Railway Bridge - last chance to see
The bridge has stood like this since 1984, when half of it was demolished by a train crash. The incident occurred when some wagons became detached from a train and were freewheeling towards Carlisle Station. A quick-thinking signalman managed to divert them onto this line, which was opened in 1877 specifically for goods traffic, to avoid it going through the Station. For more information on this railway see http://www.cumbria-railways.co.uk/bog_junction_carlisle.html .

Sculptured railings beside the River Caldew
New flood walls were built along this stretch of the River Caldew in about 2008, set a few metres back from the bank. Some of the old walls were replaced with railings, which both enhance the view and allow rising water to spread over the cyclepath. The decorative railings, created by Alan Dawson Associates of Workington, were inspired by Carlisle's railway heritage. This sculpture depicts a train crash which wrecked a nearby railway bridge in 1984 (see Image ). The blue and red circular motif attached to the engine is part of another artwork, comprising 40 enamel plaques dotted around the city's flood defences (see Image ). It is a weather map of the British Isles dated 08/01/05 - the day that large areas of Carlisle suffered devastating floods.

The Cumbria Way, Denton Holme
The Cumbria Way long distance path follows the Caldew Cycleway along the back of the River Caldew flood defence wall at Denton Holme (next photograph Image). This section of the Caldew Cycleway is also known as the Caldew Riverside Trail. Denton Holme can also be spelled as Dentonholme; the various railway companies that maintained facilities in this part of Carlisle almost exclusively used Dentonholme, Denton Holme is more common elsewhere.
