A small back-street pub near the new Sainsbury’s that is little changed from 2009 apart from being boarded up.

The Jester
Originally called the Earl Grey, this inter-wars pub was designed for the Carlisle State Management Scheme by architect Harry Redfern in an Art Deco style rather than his usual Arts and Crafts idiom. It is now, as the StreetView image shows, a Taekwon-do school.
The White Horse
An imposing three-storey inn on one of Penrith’s several irregular market squares that still looks quite thriving on the StreetView image from 2009.

The Rose & Crown
A characteristic Harry Redfern-designed State Management Scheme inter-wars pub on a peripheral estate. Now demolished. See here for a news report about its closure.
The White Quey
A large rural pub south of Carlisle that has obviously received considerable investment over the years. "Quey" is an old North of England term for a heifer.
