From The Times, 26 Oct 1819, posted with permission of the transcriber, Petra Michinson. Geo. Carlisle-castle is now undergoing very important alterations, additions, and improvements, in order to make it the principal military depot for the north. A considerable number of infantry will be permanently quartered within the Castle, the cannon will be mounted, and the principal defences much strengthened. We rejoice at this, for so venerable and useful a fabric should not be permitted to crumble beneath the tooth of time with indifference. - Carlisle Patriot.
