Notes on Berwickshire Forts, with a Description of those Recently Discovered

Abstract

Since the Eoyal Commission issued its Report on the Ancient Monuments in the County of Berwick, several additional forts have been discovered in that area. In the Commission's Inventory ninety-three are reported, of which seventy-eight are figured. The number now on record of which surface evidence still exists is one hundred and five, in addition to twenty-two sites where forts are stated to have formerly been visible. To these should be added thirteen place-names which seem to indicate the previous existence of a fort. This brings the total number of forts to one hundred and forty.
