Pelutho
Pelutho is a hamlet in the civil parish of Holme St. Cuthbert in Cumbria, United Kingdom. It is situated on the B5301 road between the towns of Aspatria and Silloth-on-Solway. The village of Mawbray is located three miles to the south-west, and the village of Abbeytown is located three-and-a-half miles to the north-east. Carlisle, Cumbria's county town, is located 21-and-a-half miles to the east. ==History and etymology== The name "Pelutho" is derived from the Old Norse ''pil-oat-haugr'', meaning "peeled-oats hill". In the past, the name has been written in several different forms, including Pellathow, Pellothoe, Pollathow, Pellithow, and Pelato. During the Roman period, the area around Pelutho was fortified. A series of milefortlets were constructed beyond the western end of Hadrian's Wall to defend against incursions across the Solway Firth. Two of these, milefortlets 13 and 14, are located within two miles of Pelutho, near the hamlets of Blitterlees and Beckfoot respectively.
