The ancient city of Carlisle is situated in Cumberland ward, nearlysurrounded by the rivers Eden, Pettrell, and Caldew, 305 miles fromLondon on the great western road to Glasgow, and not more than 13 fromthe borders of Scotland.

There is no doubt that this city, called by the Britons Caerleyl or Caer-leol,was the Luguvallum of the Romans mentioned in the Itinerary of Antoninus.We are told by two of the Scottish historians that Carlisle, one of thestrongest of the British towns was burnt by the Scots during the absenceof the Romans in the reign of the Emperor Nero. It must have beenafter this event, and probably in the time of Agricola, that Carlisle was fortified with walls by the Romans as a strong frontier town, against the invasionsof the Picts and Scots. So durable was their structure, that notwithstanding the recorded desolation of this town by the Danes, and the many subsequent repairs of the walls after its sundry sieges, much Roman masonryremained till of late years in different parts, particularly on the east side.When St. Cuthbert was at Carlisle in 685, we are told by Bede, that thecitizens took him to see the walls and a well of curious workmanship madeby the Romans.
