A Roman marching camp once stood here — today it survives as earthworks in Cumbria. The Albion Guide maps ten Roman marching camps in the county; this is one of them. The surrounding countryside is part of the Solway Coast National Landscape. The nearest railway station is Annan, 11.9 km to the north-east.
