Details of Carlisle and the Ticket Luck value

Carlisle
The local government district with city status in Cumbria, England, is the City of Carlisle. It is known as the 2000 year city. It is the most northerly English City and the smallest in population terms but largest in land area.

Carlisle boasts the highest and lowest points in any city, ranging from sea level to the top of coal fell, that is, 2041ft. Carlisle is approximately a two-hour drive from Stranraer on the A75.

The district was formed on April 1, 1974 by the merger of the previous city and County Borough of Carlisle, with the Border Rural District. The history of Carlisle is rich as the great border city has seen many tribes, armies and rebels come and go, with each leaving a legacy for today's visitors to experience.

The first inhabitants of the city were the Celtic warlords who were widespread around the region. When the Romans arrived in force to defend their Empire and built Hadrian's Wall now one of the most important designated World Heritage Sites in existence today they established the garrisons of Luguvalium and Petrianum. By the 5th century, the Romans had left but Luguvalium remained and its fort, known as Caerligaluid, prospered.

However, the mysterious Dark Ages that followed, King Arthur and his magician Merlin visited Carlisle as well. But it was during the boisterous Middle-Ages that many of Carlisle's historic and lasting monuments were established.

The magnificent Castle founded in 1092 by William the Conquerer's son now stands as testament to the years of feuding over the English-Scottish border. It was once the prison of Mary, Queen of Scots and is still home to the King's Own Royal Border Regiment today.

The history of the City is also important in the context of giving birth to a lot of firsts, such as, Carlisle had the first letterbox on mainland Britain; the first delivery of newspapers by air in Britain took place in Carlisle; and the first cardboard railway ticket was invented and used in Carlisle.

The City of Carlisle beholds a lot of beautiful sights which are a must see, for example, the Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery, Carlisle Castle, the famous art gallery-The Millennium Gallery, Carlisle Cathedral with a fine example of Medieval architecture, Carlisle Racecourse, and much more!

The addition of the Border Reivers Cycle Trail in 2008 is hot-favorite nowadays. With three circular routes to cater for all levels of cyclist, the Border Reivers Cycle Trail covers over 100 miles of the spectacular countryside.

The Solway Firth salt marshes and dunes, an area of outstanding natural beauty, allows one to enjoy sunsets, rare wildlife and inspiring views along its path.
