About

Belle Vue ward occupies a central portion of the town of Carlisle, positioned between the River Caldew to the north and the West Coast Main Line railway to the south. The area is primarily residential, characterised by Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, with some more modern developments. Its streets form a grid-like pattern, and it contains several local schools, community centres, and small, neighbourhood-oriented shopping parades serving the immediate population.

A significant green space is Rickerby Park, which stretches along a bend in the River Eden and provides extensive recreational fields and riverside paths. The ward is also home to Brunton Park, the stadium of Carlisle United Football Club, a focal point for community activity on match days. The area's layout and amenities reflect its long-established role as a settled residential district within the city's urban fabric.
