I have a booklet on Carlisle World War One Memorials and Trinty Church is not in the listings, but have you tried Carlisle Museum Of Military Life, I know they have a collection Memorial Plaques that have been relocated and recovered  from various local locations. Also on Google it states the current location of the plaques. as the east end of south wall at Holy Trinty Church, Stanhope Road/Wigton Road, Carlisle which I know is about 5 minute walk from the original Trinty Church. It states two Bronze plaques, WW1 and WW2 , the inscriptions are legible and listed, details for 224 names.

Hope this helps, if your not local to Carlisle, I could go and look for you if need be.
