[Note] Although this Camp or Fort differs a little in Shape (being rather of a square form) from the other Camps in the locality of this plan, yet it, being constructed by the Romans is rather doubtful and more probably was constructed by the same people who erected the other forts or Camps in this neighbourhood, And therefore "Camp" only is written on plan

Ordnance Survey - Midlothian county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Midlothian, which is in the east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
