A plan of the cathedral,
from Jollie's Cumberland Guide and Directory 1811.
From Jollie's Cumberland Guide &
Directory, 1811. The map of Carlisle is too large to scan in one piece. Accordingly,
there are two overlapping maps, covering the left and right halves. These are rather large, and the suggestion is
made that, once downloaded, you right-click the image and save it to your hard disk.
The National Library of Scotland can
supply a photocopy of Wood's splendid map of Carlisle, dating from 1821, at a cost of
about £5 (including UK postage). They can be contacted at maps@nls.uk.
If contacting them by mail, their address is National Library of Scotland, Map Library,
Causewayside Building, 33 Salisbury Place, Edinburgh, Scotland, EH9 1SL.

Directory, 1811. The map of Whitehaven is too large to scan in one piece.

is made that, once downloaded, you right-click the image and save it to your hard disk.

Directory, 1811. The map of Workington is too large to scan in one piece.
