| STATION (Remains of) (Continued) | Fort (Remains of) Continued | 023 | [continued from page 79] The remains of this Fort, pointed out by the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym of New Kilpatrick, are in tolerable preservation, considering that the traces of the Stations generally upon the line of Wall are not to be seen now. There are three distinct appearances in what remains of the trenches at the present time, the deepest being next to that of an ordinary cutting except that the tops are not so regular or well defined. The remains have been shewn after the same manner as those of the great Ditch of the Wall - Name Sheet of which See. The Military Way known as the "Causeway" to the old people of the district, passes through this Station as described in the Caledonia Romana quoted on the other side. It is now a Parish Road. The west side of this Fort where it passes across the Road - the "Causeway", leaves a hollow in it which is plain to be seen & well known to the authorities quoted as the trench. No Traces are now visible between the great Ditch of the Wall & this Ph. [Parish] Road, or "Causeway", on the east or west sides. The whole of the remains shewn are ploughed over yearly. Better remains than those described in the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana (p. [page] 308), are to be seen on the inner or north side of the trench or ditch forming the south side of the Fort of Kilpatrick. Mention is made in the 'Romana of a spring of water "within the ramparts; the water from which has been recently led into a drain, & now makes its crystal appearance towards the bottom of the field" (the south of the Fort) "When first discovered a few remains of masonry existed near it." There is nothing now to be seen of any masonry within the area of the Fort, nor do the authorities given know of its position nor of the spring itself. |
