The Hadrian's Wall vallum between the watercourse 400m south east of Glasson and the access road to Glendale caravan park is a section of the defensive earthwork that runs parallel to Hadrian's Wall in wall miles 76 and 77, Cumberland. The vallum consists of a ditch with flanking mounds and dates to the second century AD, constructed during the Roman occupation of Britain as part of the broader defensive system of the frontier. This particular stretch preserves archaeological evidence of the wall's logistical infrastructure, which controlled movement across the frontier and was built shortly after the wall itself was completed under the Emperor Hadrian. The earthwork remains visible in the landscape as an important survival of Roman military engineering in northern Britain.
