The Pedestrian Arms
On Newtown Road, at the corner of Bright Street.
The Pedestrian Arms was listed in street directories from 1869. Its name was changed to the North British Railway Inn around 1877, and back to the Pedestrian Arms in 1916, when the State Management Scheme took over control of Carlisle pubs (see 'Carlisle Breweries and Public Houses 1894-1916' by S. Davidson http://www.bookscumbria.com/cgi-bin/trolleyed_public.cgi?action=showprod_2274 ).
The pub closed a few months after this photo was taken, and was demolished in 2014.

Site of "Pedestrian Arms" pub, Newtown Road - June 2017 (1)
The "Pedestrian Arms" dated from the building of New Town Place (now simply part of Newtown Road) between 1842 and 1848, although the first record of a "beerhouse" on the site does not appear until 1861. Around 1877 the name was changed to "North British Railway Inn" as the North British Railway had its shed and yards not far away. Acquired by the State Management Scheme on 7 September 1916, the name was changed back to "Pedestrian Arms" - possibly to discourage use by off-duty railway staff.
Sold by the Scheme to Greenall Whitley on 22 May 1973, the pub closed in 2012 and was demolished in 2015. Views of the demolition may be seen: http://ablogfrommydog.com/contents1a/2015/05/pedestrian-arms-pub-in-carlisle-demolished/
