Archaeologists uncover Roman bath in Carlisle

       England's cheapest city has homes averaging ￡167,976 as house prices go down by an average of over ￡5,000.

       Carlisle, a cathedral city in Cumbria, has some of the cheapest house prices across the whole of the UK, with some on the market currently being just ￡40,000.

       The city, home to a historic centre with a castle, cathedral and semi-intact city walls, has homes priced well below the UK average.

       Typical property value in the nation was ￡289,818 in January - meaning Carlisle sits ￡121,842 below this.

       On the market at the moment is a two-bed end of terrace house located on Scaurbank Road for just ￡40,000.

       Meanwhile, a two-bed flat located on Rydal Street is selling for ￡45,000.

       Homes in Carlisle had gone down in price at the beginning of the year, with the average detached house being ￡284,154 compared to ￡294,995 in December.

       And flats have gone down to just ￡88,889 from ￡92,023 - according to figures from the Land Registry.

       But with mortgae rates on the rise, this could change as two-year fixed mortgage deals now have an interest rate of 6.66 percent.
