Carvetii's defence contained the threat well, however, and they went 2-0 up when in-form Trewhitt was picked out again to score his second.
Carleton's attempts to release their quick forwards with balls over the top were finally rewarded when they pulled a goal back, but Carvetii's top scorer Dan Robinson - dropped back into midfiel - killed off the comeback with a 25-yard screamer into the top of the net with 10 minutes remaining.
Carvetii, seeking a quick return to the Second Division after relegation last season, are now 16 points clear at the top from Shap, who have six matches in hand, making the fixture between the sides later potentially the key one to the title.

 CARVETII
Interestingly, the Carvetii are not mentioned in the Geography of Claudius Ptolemaeus.
The tribe's omission from the work of Ptolemy, the major historical source of the names of indigenous tribes, has meant that the Carvetii were not certainly identified until an inscribed Roman tombstone was found in 1600 at Old Penrith.
The new governor was forced to send several cohorts to her aid, until the forces under the able command of Venutius were eventually defeated in a decisive engagement.

FOOTBALL: Carvetii United are the side everyone has to catch in the Talbot Insurance Westmorland League third division after they beat Grasmere 3-0 on Saturday.
In one of the few matches to survive Saturday's early-morning deluge, Carvetii recorded their 10th league win in 13 attempts to go 12 points clear although second-placed Sedbergh Wanderers Reserves and Shap both have a handful of matches in hand.
Carvetii's third came when Alistair Keetley weaved his way past the defence for a fine individual goal.

Carvetii have gone unbeaten in pre-season games and went into their opening match high on confidence.
Carvetii quickly settled down and began to the pass the ball sharply and, as the game progressed, talented striker Dan Robinson was finding more and more space for Carvetii and his close control and pace was a constant problem for the Grasmere defence.
Carvetii beat Appleby Reserves 4-0 on Saturday withDan Robinson, who has had trials at Newcastle and Carlisle, scoring a hat-trick.

I would suggest that the form Cerwyd for Pabo’s son is the correct form and that this is, indeed, a personification of the Carvetii.
On the other hand, a Cerwydd the ‘stag-like man’ may be either representative of the Carvetii, the “stag-men”, or may have been named after them.
There is evidence in the form of a concentration of inscriptions at Brougham that the primary Carvetii deity worshipped at these henges was a horned god (doubtless a stag, given that Carvetii means “people of the stag or deer”) named Belatucadros.

She was the leading noble of the Brigantian federation who was probably granted a clientship with Rome in AD43, along with her consort Venutius of the Carvetii.
He lived possibly until after c.AD70 when another Brigantian revolution forced Cartimandua to seek the protection of the Roman governor, leading to the dissolution of the clientship and the advent of direct rule by Rome.

During the Iron Age the lands now known as Lancashire were part of the territory of a loose confederation of ancient Celtic tribes known as the Brigantes, including the Setantii, who lived along the Fylde Coast of Lancashire, and the Carvetii who occupied lands around Carlisle.
Several Brigantian hill forts are known to exist in the county, including those at Warton Crag, Skelmore Heads in Cumbria and Ingleborough and Stanwick in Yorkshire.

We do not know exactly who Luguvalos was or how the Romano-British town came to be named after him, all we do know is that he was a Celtic noble, perhaps of the Carvetii tribe who inhabited the countryside hereabouts.
The Civitas Carvetiorum or the 'tribal council of the Carvetii' is first attested during the rule of emperor Postumus, the Carvetii cantonal council almost certainly met at Carlisle.
It is thought that the Carvetii were in fact the tribe of Venutius, the consort of Cartimandua of the Brigantes, if this were true, then it is quite possible that he lived at Old Carlisle, which was probably the chief pre-Roman tribal centre.
