Note 4 — HISTORICAL, POETICAL, AND ROMANTIC ASSOCIATIONS OF CARLISLE.
Reading edition
A note to this passage in "Percy's Reliques" (the editor of which, it must be stated, modernised and added to this ballad), informs us that Tearne-Wadling is near Hesketh, on the road from Penrith, where there is a tradition still in existence that an old castle once stood upon the spot.
