Lifeboat Saturday and Castle St & Museum

This card is dated 1924, the tall building to the right is
Bookcase, all the other buildings to the right
have been demolished

Tullie House Museum is on the left with its familiar clock tower.

Bottom centre left is the old Salvation Army Citadel and
beyond that the castle.

This is 'English Street, Lifeboat Saturday', the card
has no date, my guess is 1905-15. The Old Town Hall
is in the background, most of the buildings have
been demolished in the 1980s to make way for
the Lanes development.

The lifeboat could be from Silloth or Maryport and
would be on a fundraising mission.
