The milecastle is situated south of the fort at Stanwix close to the River Eden. ...Milecastle 66 (Stanwix Bank) would lie, by calculation, nearly on the edge of the escarpment, where Pennant, in 1772 noted the "vestiges of some dikes describing a small square, the site of a fort to defend the pass".
