Description
No. 11 Fisher Street is a house dating from around 1800, built for Robert Ferguson, with Victorian alterations. It features Flemish bond brickwork with light headers, painted stone quoins, an eaves cornice, and a solid parapet. The slate roof includes dormer windows and an original end brick chimney stack. The building has three storeys and three bays, with a single-bay extension on the left. It has a serpentine front and a central entrance with panelled double doors and an overlight, set within a prostyle Tuscan porch. Ground floor canted bay windows have been added, while the central sash windows above are framed by painted stone architraves, with tripartite sash windows on either side. Smaller windows are present on the third floor. A contemporary extension features a panelled door in a porch similar to the main entrance, with an additional plank door beyond, also with an overlight and in a painted stone architrave, leading to a through-passage. The upper sash windows match those of the main facade.
The interior has been extensively altered between 1967 and 1971. Historically, the building served as a school before becoming a club in 1928. According to Brown in 1951, the large house opposite the foot of Long Lane was built around 1800 by Robert Ferguson, grandfather of the late Mr. Robert Ferguson of Morton. John Wood's Map of Carlisle from 1821 indicates a house at this location belonging to Mr. Ferguson.
