"In the Survey of 1604 there is mention of 'the Fleet Crose' in this region, and none of Philip's Cross (NT70NW 4) from which fact Mr R P Sanderson infers that these are identical, but the names are distinctive and should not have been readily confused, and "Fleet" (signifying "a run or flow of water') occurs elsewhere on the Borders. Since this is not impossibly a different memorial, the Fleet Cross may conceivably have stood at or near the Borderline on a hill passage leading from the middle tributary of Edgerston Burn into the Redesdale uplands and thus well to the west of Philip's Cross".
