Christ Church, Carlisle needs makeover
« on: Friday 06 October 17 17:41 BST (UK) »
As far as I am aware the image posted here is the only extant image of Christ Church, Carlisle which was demolished in c1952. Can anyone get rid of the flare and bring out some of the detail. Local Studies Library does not have an image so I would like to give them a copy of any improved picture.  Many Thanks.

Clean up and a bit of reconstruction but not much detail, unfortunately.

I checked via Google and there are better quality photos than this one out there:

That's in Silloth, not Carlisle  :-\

Christ a Church Carlisle was on Botchergate, it was demolished in the 1950's. The church in your link is still in existence.

Thanks Jen, I'll leave links to 'other references' to people who are less sloppy with them than I am ;)
