It may be well to mention here that the ancient royal ‘Forest of Inglewood’ was 
included wholly within this area. It extended from the city of Carlisle to Penrith, a distance 
of eighteen miles, embracing both towns. The whole of the following parishes were within 
its limits, viz.: Penrith, Edenhall, Great Salkeld, Lazonby, Hesket, Wetheral, Warwick, 
St. Mary’s (Carlisle), St. Cuthbert’s (Carlisle), Dalston, Hutton, Skelton and Newton Regny ; 
as also portions of Thursby, Sebergham, Castle Sowerby, Westward and Caldbeck. It 
remained an appanage to the Crown property until the year 1696, when it was granted to 
William Bentinck, first earl of Portland. 
List of plants of more or less rarity to be found within the limits of District III.; the 
most extensive and fertile, as it is also the most highly cultivated, of the divisions which I 
have adopted for the purposes of this work.
