Roman Road, Craik Cross Hill to Raeburnfoot
The Roman road linking Lauderdale with Eskdale enters the area of survey at Craik Cross Hill (NT 303 047); from this point to Raeburnfoot fort (NY29NE 5) it is remarkable for the scale of its engineering, which involved lengthy cuttings and terraces, and the use of the natural rock (laid bare by removal of the overlying peat and brash) as the road-surface.
