Carlisle: the English Gate from inside the city, with the town jail

Engraved by from a drawing by Robert Carlyle for Lyson (London: ).

The view through the English Gate (the road leading from the South) shows what looks like the ruins of the citaldel. The red sandstone building to the right with the barred windows is the jail. Fox was probably kept there rather than in the castle
