Where exactly

On Scotch Street. The exact spot isn't known, so the pin marks the street, not the building.

A Scotch Street inn, trading before 1784. Furness Hodgson kept the house as the Black Bull in 1801, Nathan Goulding is named in the 1821 New Guide to Carlisle, and Parson and White's directory of 1829 names Thomas Simmonds as keeper of the Black Bull, Scotch Street. Not to be confused with the Black Bull Vaults on Annetwell Street, or the Black Bulls at Upperby and Kingstown.

It gave up its own name in 1847, when a Carlisle Journal advertisement noted it had become the Joiners Arms Inn. Mr Little, publican of the Joiners Arms at 78 English Street, now remembered as the Liverpool Arms, moved here that year and brought the name with him: two pubs, one name, changing hands in the same year. William Fisher, 36 and born in Scotland, is the innkeeper of the 1861 census. One record has the Joiners Arms name here only until 1852, and the house trading until 1862.
