The Rickerby Park Memorial Bridge: The footbridge in Rickerby Park, Carlisle, was built in 1922 as part of a memorial project for the fallen of the First World War. It spans the River Eden and connects the city center with the park. The bridge is part of a larger ensemble with a cenotaph and other memorials, and was funded by the Carlisle Citizens League.

Hiking

South east of the bridge you can walk along the river through golf course and further towards the motorway - 2 miles-ish. the path brings you out to "big supermarket" car park.
or if you wonder over the North side of the bridge in Rockery park there are placed few different types of stones with names and description on them - worth the search.
