Milecastle 70
Milecastle 70 (Braelees) was one of a series of Milecastles or small fortlets built at intervals of approximately one Roman mile along Hadrian's Wall ().
==Description==
Milecastle 70 is thought to lie between the villages of Kirkandrews-on-Eden and Beaumont to the north of Cowen Bank by the River Eden. The precise location of the milecastle has not yet been found.〔 The measured position is 300 metres north of Braelees towards Monkhill Beck. A geophysical survey in 2000 failed to locate it, and it may have been substantially or completely robbed of stone.〔
The line of Hadrian's Wall is said to have been confirmed in an excavation close to the site of the milecastle. To the south, at Braelees (), many squared dressed stones are said to have been dug out of the garden by the gardener and used for a rockery. To the north, two fragments of what are thought to be the Wall ditch are visible either side of Monkhill Beck (), where it survives to a depth of 2 metres, having been used over time as a farm track.〔 To the southwest, a short section of the Vallum ditch, 110 metres in length ( to ), is visible as a slight earthwork on air photographs.
In the early 19th century, part of a Roman cohort stone (''RIB'' 2035) was found in the River Eden, and was placed in a wall at Beaumont (). It commemorates the work of the fifth cohort of the Twentieth Legion. In 1934 a Roman altar was found in the footings of an old cottage being demolished at Beaumont (). The altar was dedicated to Jupiter and the presiding genius of the numerus of Aurelian Moors, Valerianus' and Gallienus' Own. In 1935, a Roman coin was found by a gardener at Braelees ().
