Map of the UK

Harraby South is a largely residential ward on the south‑eastern edge of Carlisle in Cumberland, England. The area developed mainly during the mid‑20th century and combines a mix of council and private housing, small local shops and community facilities; pleasant green spaces and sports pitches give it a suburban feel while keeping it within easy reach of the city centre and the main road and rail links serving Carlisle.

Locally there is a strong community-oriented vibe, with active groups, schools and amateur sports clubs playing an important social role. Economically the neighbourhood is driven by local retail and services and by commuting to larger employers in Carlisle, so it reflects the wider post‑industrial shifts in the region while retaining a distinct, close‑knit community identity.
