019 ; 020 | [continued from page 29] On the lands of E. [Easter] Dullatur (19A- 16.3) upon the authority of W. Stark & T. Allan. Westerwood. the remains of the Causeway appear for about a chain's distance, crossing a gap in a fence between two fields. No traces are to be seen between this part & the Arniebog Ph. [Parish] Road. Between this & Croy Hill no remains exist, though the Ph. [Parish] Road at Easter Dullatur is believed by a few to be on the line of the Road or M. [Military] Way. The authorities for this are the personal ones quoted, but the part is doubtful like that of the Road at Arniebog. in both of which cases it is Only surmised that these Roads are on the site of the M. [Military Way. On Croy Hill, where, from the rough rocky nature of the soil it might be expected to find the best preserved parts of the Road remaining; no traces whatever of a Causeway are to be seen. At two places on the rough pasture grounds of the Hill - at or near where it adjoins the lands of Easter Dullatur, & at the bottom of the Rampart (Trace 3.25-3) there appear tracks of a turfy soil for short distances, but, as before stated, no Traces of a Causeway exist. Through the Remaining part of the Parish, from Croy Hill to the western By. [Boundary] of the Pa[rish] there are no traces of the Military Way to be seen, nor does the site of it appear to be known. |
