Craiglockhart - Castle Greg - Castledykes

Roman Road (roman)(possible)

What is recorded here

Craiglockhart, Castle Greg and Castledykes may mark a Roman road, though the connection remains possible rather than proven. If true, the line crossed West Lothian during the Roman period and carried soldiers, merchants or orders through terrain that still resists easy reading. The names preserve more than a boundary; they preserve a route someone walked, hurried along or forgot.
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.

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