Former "Spinners Arms", Milbourne Street - March 2018
First recorded in the local directory of 1858 and is probably mid-19th Century, the "Spinners Arms" was acquired by the State Management Scheme on 29 August 1916. The Carlisle Family History web site (http://carlisleshistory.co.uk/ ) indicates it was closed in 1917 and has been a private dwelling since.

The Caldew Cycleway, Viaduct Estate
The River Caldew flows behind the flood defence wall on the left. The flood defence wall was constructed after the 2009 floods to protect commercial premises on the Viaduct Estate, but cost cutting to the original design specification rendered the flood defences ineffective and the businesses on the Viaduct Estate were flooded again in 2015. The Caldew Cycleway is the route of The Cumbria Way long distance path (next photograph Image).

Former "Woolpack Inn", Milbourne Street - March 2018 (1)
First mentioned in the local directory for 1876, old photographs show it was very similar in appearance to the "Spinners Arms" (see: Image] ). It was acquired by the State Management Scheme on 3 August 1916 and was sold to the sitting tenant in 1973 for £6,920. Local records show it was given a "face lift" in 1977 with an extension added in 1988 (possibly the low building to the right). It was renamed "Biddy Mulligan" in 1997, but then banned Irish music in 1998 - which drove customers away! It came under new management on 28 March 2003 when renamed "Knight Inn", but closed on 9 July 2004 due to illness. Now a private dwelling with no public access. See also: Image] .

The Caldew Cycleway
The Caldew Cycleway between the River Caldew, behind the flood defence wall to the left, and Lower Viaduct Car Park behind the trees to the right. The Caldew Cycleway is the route of The Cumbria Way long distance path (next photograph Image). This part of the Cycleway follows a former railway that allowed freight trains to bypass Carlisle Citadel Station. The line was electrified as a part of the West Coast Electrification but was closed and dismantled soon after, following a freight train derailment on the 1st May 1984. Railway engineers had assessed the damage as not too serious and were getting ready to repair this useful line, but the Conservative Government under Margaret Thatcher issued an instruction that the line should be closed. This was in accordance with government policy at that time to reduce railway mileage. Freight operators have subsequently pushed for the line to be reinstated to avoid congestion and delays, but the decision to build the flood defence wall along the railway formation has made reopening unlikely due to the increased cost.
