Description

Roman Eskdale is a detailed guide to the Roman forts and ruins of Eskdale, a dale in Cumberland. The book explores the history of the area, including the arrival of the Romans and the development of the Roman road in Eskdale. It also delves into the history of the two significant Roman forts at this location, one on the mountainside of Hardknot and the other at Ravenglass by the sea-shore.

Written with the permission of the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society, this book is highly recommended for those with an interest in ancient Roman ruins and settlements. The guide includes a range of topics, from the pottery and tilery at Park House to the history of Headknot Castle.

Republished in an affordable, modern edition, Roman Eskdale now includes a specially commissioned new biography of the author, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the region.
