Conversion

Situated on Carlisle Citadel railway station, this former first class waiting room was built in 1848 and is Grade II listed. The cavernous room has had a number of functions including being the station buffet in the 1950s. Much of the fabric of the old building is retained, notably the high vaulted ceiling, which is a magnificent hammerbeam roof. From the platform there is the original wooden entrance lobby and at each end are mighty carved-stone fireplaces in Tudor style. There is a beautiful mahogany bar and a good quality bar back, their position matching where the former refreshment counter was positioned.
