Barrons Pike was a Roman Signal Station in Cumberland. It has a clear line of sight to the Roman station at Robin Hood’s Butts about 2¼ miles to the south-south-west, also to the Hadrian’s Wall Northern Outpost fort at Bewcastle, which lies just over 1¾ miles to the west-south-west. It includes a circular mound of earth and stones measuring approximately 60 feet in diameter and up to 3 feet high, which is surrounded by a ditch varying between 8-18 feet wide by 2 feet deep. A narrow causeway crosses the ditch on the south-west side. The whole monument measures 87ft in diameter. It is within the council area of Cumberland.
