Bailiff's house and stables now Boathouse. 1733 for Carlisle Corporation, mid
and late C18 extensions. Whitewashed brick; central sandstone slab roof
repaired with Welsh slate, flanking extensions of graduated greenslate;
whitewashed brick chimney stacks. 2 storeys, 2 bays, with l-bay extension to
right and 2-bay stable to left under common roof. Brick porch with lean-to roof
of sandstone slates and Welsh slates; plank door, to side, in plain red
sandstone surround, externally shuttered window. Sash windows with glazing
bars, external shutters to ground floor, partly boarded over above. Carved

THE CITY OF CARLISLE AND MR JOHN BROWN, MR GEORGE SOWERBY, BAYLIFFS. Extension

to left. Oval inscription to left of loft door, Joseph Gill Esq, Mayor 1782.
The fishing rights on this part of the River Eden are mentioned as belonging to
the city of Carlisle in medieval charters and it seems this house was built to
protect these rights. There was an annual meeting of the Corporation at King
Garth until the early C20. County Record Office has the bricklayers bills of
28 October 1733, for the building of a new brick house at the Fishery at King's
Garth. House derelict and unoccupied at time of survey. Lean-to boat shed
behind stables is of no interest.
