Canal Mile Marker, Boustead Hill


There is an old Mile Marker at the north of Boustead Hill, which is a remider that the Carlisle Canal once passed here. The canal closed in 1853, then was filled in to become a railway line. Today, the Hadrian's Wall Path national trail follows the dismantled railway bed here.
