Peebles - Castledykes - Loudoun Hill - Irvine (?)

Roman Road (roman)

What is recorded here

Castledykes, Loudoun Hill and Irvine may still hide a Roman road beneath South Lanarkshire soil. Peels of hard wheel-ruts or packed gravel could wait under grass, bracken or farm lanes. The names point across districts rather than one clean line, so the road may have worn itself into several local memories at once.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Peebles - Castledykes - Loudoun Hill - Irvine (?) as Roman Road (roman). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1km. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
