Ewes Doors NY 37 98 NY39NE 5
Three linear earthworks traverse the pass known as Ewes Doors at the head of the Eweslees Burn. Two of them are on the Eskdale side of the district boundary and each of these consists of a bank and ditch; that to the S (NY 373 985 to 374 986) is about 150m in length (including a break where an old road passes through), and that to the N (NY 373 986 to 374 986) is relatively well preserved for a length of 50m, with slight traces indicating that it continued for a further 45m up the slope to the NE.
