CTD Tiles on Viaduct Estate Road (Image: Google StreetView)
CTD Tiles, one of the UK’s biggest tile suppliers, has shut 56 of its stores after falling into administration.
The Carlisle store on Viaduct Estate Road is one of the affected stores.
The CTD webpage for the Carlisle store said there was "over 70 years of combined tile industry experience" at the Viaduct Estate branch.
Administrators of the business said that 268 workers were made redundant nationally after the collapse.
However, 30 of its shops and two distribution sites were bought in a rescue deal by rival Topps Group.
