New Stores To Open In The Lanes Shopping Centre
Anyone walking through the Lanes Shopping centre in Carlisle today will have noticed the sound of work being done on some of the vacant lots.
Six new stores are opening up within the spaces in the next few months including large national chains as well as local independent retailers.
In an era where we're told that the high street is falling by the wayside because of the internet, we caught up with The Lanes to find out what the new stores mean for Carlisle's City Centre.
25th Anniversary of the Lanes Shopping Centre
As part of the 25th Anniversary of The Lanes Shopping Centre in Carlisle and from the success of 'The Changing Room Challenge', Wright Walker Productions were commissioned to produce a 7 minute film about the history of the original lanes, including photos provided by Tullie House and Carlisle Life and incorporating an historic walk with Open Book Visitor Guiding. One of the highlights of the film is the story about the discovery of a body within a roman well during an archeology excavation of the site, bringing to end a 2000 year old murder mystery.

Places to see in ( Silloth - UK )
Silloth is a port town and civil parish in Cumbria, England. It sits on the shoreline of the Solway Firth, 22 miles west of Carlisle. The town of Maryport lies 12 miles (19 km) to the south, down the B5300 coast road which also passes through the villages of Blitterlees, Beckfoot, Mawbray, and Allonby. Wigton is twelve miles to the east, along the B5302 road, which also passes through the village of Abbeytown, 5.5 miles (8.9 km) to the south-east. Silloth has a population of 2,932, reducing slightly to 2,906 at the 2011 Census.
Historically a part of Cumberland, the town is one of the finest examples of a Victorian seaside resort in the North of England. Silloth developed in the 1860s onwards around the terminus of the railway from Carlisle and associated docks which had begun construction in 1855 to replace Port Carlisle as the deep-water port for Carlisle.
For the first time workers from the factories of Carlisle were presented with affordable access to the seaside and the town flourished as a destination for day trippers. The town reached the peak of its popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Recent years have seen a great deal of development with many of the sea facing properties having received facelifts. The main central attraction is a large expansive green that is utilised throughout the year to host various events and activities.
Silloth's largest church is Christ Church, situated in a complete rectangular plot which was planned into the original town design. It is on a commanding site at Criffel Street and the body of the church was completed in 1870. The porch tower and large broach spire were completed later in 1878, and house a ring of 8 bells which are chimed. It was designed by Carlisle architect Charles John Ferguson in the Gothic style, and is built with an interesting mix of local sandstone, and granite which was brought by the North British Railway from Newry in Northern Ireland. Much of the interior is faced with yellow brick trimmed with red. Several other churches and chapels of various denominations are also located within the town or its outskirts.
One of the busiest ports in Cumbria, Silloth is owned and operated by Associated British Ports. The main cargoes are wheat, fertiliser, molasses, forest products and general cargo. Tourism is a major economic player in Silloth, with dozens of large and small static and touring caravan parks located within a ten-mile (16 km) radius of the town centre. This is responsible for the tremendous growth in the population on most days throughout the summer months.
Amenities include a championship golf course ranked amongst the country's top fifty courses, several hotels and bed and breakfasts, public houses, tea rooms and eateries. There is a local 'free' newspaper published monthly entitled 'The Solway Buzz' - distributed to households in the area by a team of volunteers - which covers news and events in Silloth and the surrounding area.
Silloth also prides itself in its coastline along the Solway Firth which has been described in one of the country's leading sea fishing publications, Total Sea Angling, as having the best flatfish fishing coastline in the country, with over 20 miles (32 km) of beach and promenade to choose from. Bait and equipment are also available locally. Wind and kite surfing are also popular along the coast at Allonby, 8 miles (13 km) from Silloth town centre.

Abandoned Old Farm At Carlisle UK. 1080p HD????
Sorry for the slightly blurred pitcher at the beginning of the video. The Abandoned farm and farmhouse are due to be demolished as I found out later on in the day To make way for new houses?. I think old farmhouses like this one should be saved and not demolished, they could save this farmhouse and combine it with any new houses built. Filmed with the Mavic 2 zoom.
