The course of the Roman wall follows the ridge on the left of the picture, presumably there was once a stone structure on top of it. The depression on the right is thought to have been excavated by the Romans while constructing the wall, it may have been used as a pond for the supply of fish. The location is at Bleatarn farm, Irthington, near Brampton in Cumbria.
