CAMP | Roman Camp | Robert Thomson Esqr. Nether Cassock Revd. [Reverend] George Strathearn Minister Eskdalemuir |
026 | [Situation] Immediately S.W [South West] from Raeburnfoot This camp has occupied a most formidable position at some period, having a large haugh on its east west and south sides; which has apparently been covered with water, before the course of White Esk and Raeburn was confined; it also has steep natural slopes on the sides facing the water, leaving only the north side in a defenceless state; which was made good by making the ditch on that side of the parallelogram larger than any of the other sides. |
