Carlisle Archive Centre & Lady Gillford's House

  • Description

    "Cumbria County Council, with assistance from the Heritage Lottery Fund, did a great job redeveloping this former factory site at Petteril Bank. The purpose-built archive centre opened to the public in 2011. It is attached to the side of the Grade II* listed mansion, which was restored after being boarded up for several years (see photo 2009 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1136750 ). Carlisle Registration Office relocated here from its old premises in town (photo http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/947273 ), and weddings have been conducted in Lady Gillford's House since 2012."
