I became a member of his Northern Archaeology Group. The group used to fly around finding Roman Forts and roads all over the north of England, the most spectacular situation that Raymond found was that apart from Hadrians' Wall. There are two frontiers together where one crosses Hadrians' Wall at an oblique angle, this other frontier begins above Segadunum in the east and hits the west coast way below Bowness at Maryport in Cumbria. The details of it are in this book, he called it the 255 line for that is the heading it takes from east to west. It is another line with forts every roman mile, so all Hadrian did was copy it as it must pre date Hadrians' Wall.
