Welcome to Cumberland

Cumberland Council has successfully completed the Dow Beck (Caldewgate) Culvert strengthening scheme in Carlisle, marking an important milestone in improving the long-term resilience of this key infrastructure asset.

Cumberland Council will begin a bridge deck replacement on the U2093 at Bridekirk Bridge, Bridekirk, Cockermouth on Tuesday 1 September 2026, with works expected to take approximately three weeks, subject to weather and site conditions.

The doors of The Carlton, one of Maryport’s most prominent buildings will soon open to the public as an entertainment and events venue with office and workshop space also available to rent.
