Note 126 — Chapter III · BRITAIN AFTER THE ROMANS.

‘Near to the parish church of Anwoth, in Galloway, is a low undulating range of hills, called the Boreland Hills. One of these goes by the name of Trusty’s Hill, and round its top may be traced the remains of a vitrified wall.’—Stuart’s Sculptured Stones, vol. i. p. 31. Anwoth is on the east side of Wigtown Bay; Whithern in the peninsula on the west side.
