Rickerby is a public open space in Carlisle, Cumbria on the banks of the River Eden. The parkland is dotted with mature trees, beneath which cattle and sheep graze the sweet pasture grasses. A riverbank path follows the sweeping bends of the Eden and, by crossing the Memorial Bridge, you can complete a circular back to the city centre on the opposite bank . You could easily spend a day here with Bits joining it . Carlisle is so lucky to have this asset I love this park. I often choose to stroll through it on the way to and fro the City. Suitable for activities all year around and just outside the city. Idea for all ages and your 4 legged friends. Grab a cuppa and a bite to eat, then head to Rickerby for wildlife (flora and fauna) encounters. Either walking or sitting in the or along the River Eden. Rickerby is a flood plain for the river and does look stunning when flooded, too. It's home to the Cenotaph and Memorial Bridge, the Eden Bridge Gardens (Chinese Garden) and modern Stone Circle erected in 2011. There are plenty of paths to walk, run,or ride, parking available off the road to Rickerby village and Linstock, and at the Swifts Nature Reserve. Keep your eyes peeled for the Kingfishers and Otters. When I was a schoolboy, I used to run around that Rickaby it was near the prefabs Saint Saint Patrick’s School headmaster Mr Wall and I knew all the teachers names too long to put it on. Was great days. It was a beautiful then magnificent, beautiful, the river beside it lots of fishermen fishing that was a long time ago. I am an old man now and I’ll see in the pictures and the bridge good memories it was beautiful then and still beautiful. I still have a little with my grandson and they take me out that’s the end top marks for Cumbria I’ll look after it I do have pictures very old one and then I’ve got to go look for them when I do find some I will put them on Rickaby into bites back there next to each other and that’s where the toilets are and playgrounds good that’s i Then that connects to the Sheepmount, where they have all the sports on the very top Sheepmount are used to have Greyhound dog racing. That’s a long time ago I don’t have to still do it the summary and friends to these parks, but they are wonderful through time Good country for walking, running and cycling. Nice escape from the city and enough space to let dogs have some fun Cows, actually young bullocks to graze there so watch where you put your feet but they're generally friendly and more interested in your car than you. We have so many green spaces in and around Carlisle! We have been rather spoilt with our green, clean, open parks!! Rickerby has Stoats, Hedgehogs, Olivine Warblers, And, meandering is the River Eden itself, Full of life, and has Trout , Salmon, Sea Trout and Pike, Perch , Minnows, it's rarely do you see Eels, but I think that is a National problem. Crows, Rooks and Jackdaws, sadly Magpie's are now rare to see... Hopefully this Natural buffer and the flora and fauna will see a revival of all kinds of Wildlife.. Aji. P.
