Beds in this part of the world are in short supply. To get to Walton just carry on down the B6318 - having turned left from the Bewcastle road. Walton is just under 4km and is a charming village, well worth a stopover. If you want to take a look at Hadrian's Wall you can head down the lanes to Brampton, or to Lanercost just a few km away.

This parish lies on the north side of the river Irthing. To the east is Lanercost and to the south, Brampton. As there are neither mines nor manufacturers in the parish, the inhabitants have traditionally been dependent upon cultivation of the land. Hadrian's Wall passes through the district, and if you keep your eyes open it shouldn't be too difficult to make out traces of it in several places.

The village is ten miles from Carlisle, and like many that lie along the famous fortification, its name is characteristic, and " bears testimony to its relationship with the Roman Wall, many of the stones of which may be detected in the cottages. "
