Carlisle Tithe Barn is an historic building in Carlisle, Cumbria. It is a Grade I listed building, listed on 1 June 1949. [1]
The tithe barn was built about the 1470s for Prior Gondibour, as part of the Priory of St Mary. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries the priory church was refounded as Carlisle Cathedral; the barn was subsequently used for various purposes, including stable and dispensary. [1] [2] [3]
The north side of the barn is thought to have been open originally. The south side, along Heads Lane, is a wall of sandstone 3 feet 7 inches (1.09 m) thick. Internally, oak roof trusses are supported on each side by large timber posts. [1]
There were modifications in 1824, when the building was adapted for use as a dispensary. In 1875 parts of the west end, in danger of collapse, were dismantled. The building was semi-derelict before purchase and restoration by St Cuthbert's Church in 1969–71; it has since been the church hall, and venue for social events. [1] [2]

Wetheral Priory Gatehouse is a 15th-century stone fortification in Wetheral, Cumbria. The priory was founded at the start of the 12th century and the gatehouse controlled the entrance to its outer courtyard. When the priory was dissolved in 1538 the gatehouse and a nearby stretch of wall were the only parts to survive. The gatehouse passed into the control of Carlisle Cathedral and became the local vicarage during the 16th and 17th centuries, before being used to store hay. Now part of a modern farm that occupies the former priory site, it is controlled by English Heritage and open to visitors. The crenellated gatehouse has three storeys, with the main entrance and porters' lodge on the ground floor and two domestic chambers on the upper floors. English Heritage considers the building to be "the finest medieval gatehouse in Cumbria".
