Craiglockhart - Castle Greg - Castledykes

Roman Road (roman)(possible)

What is recorded here

Craiglockhart, Castle Greg and Castledykes may mark a Roman road, though the line remains uncertain. If true, soldiers or merchants walked that Edinburgh edge under foreign banners, dragging carts through clay and rain. The stones vanished, but the names still point across a long forgotten distance.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Craiglockhart - Castle Greg - Castledykes as Roman Road (roman)(possible). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
