Carlisle's early history is marked by the establishment of a settlement calledLuguvaliumto servefortsalongHadrian's WallinRoman Britain.[7]Due to its proximity to Scotland (being located eight miles or thirteen kilometres south of the currentAnglo-Scottish border),Carlisle Castleand the city became an important military stronghold in theMiddle Ages. The castle served as a prison forMary, Queen of Scotsin 1568 and currently hosts theDuke of Lancaster's Regimentand theBorder RegimentMuseum. A priory was built in the early 12th century, which subsequently becameCarlisle Cathedralin 1133 on the creation of theDiocese of Carlisle. As the seat of a diocese, Carlisle therefore gainedcity status. Carlisle also served as thecounty townof thehistoric countyofCumberlandfrom the county's creation in the 12th century.
In the 19th century, the introduction oftextile manufacture during the Industrial Revolutionbegan a process ofsocioeconomictransformation in Carlisle, which developed into a densely populatedmill town. This, combined with its strategic position, allowed for the development of Carlisle as an importantrailway town, with seven railway companies sharingCarlisle railway station.
