associated - just as almost all southern Scottish castles are sited on the north side 
of their associated rivers19. In the west the stronghold of Carlisle, immediately 
south of the River Eden, formed the centrepiece of a relatively well thought out 
defensive system as long as it was in English hands, and especially after 1157. In a 
wide arc to the east and north of Carlisle were the baronial strongholds of Bramp¬ 
ton, Bewcastle, Liddel Strength and Burgh on Sands20. A fail-back line of sorts 
was provided by the fortresses of Egremont, Cockermouth, Greystoke, Appleby and 
Brough under Stainmore, but the true function of these castles was surely to serve 
as headquarters of local lordship rather than as a defence against the Scots21. 
If the Border was not in its earliest phase military, neither was it linguistic. A form 
of Old English speech had replaced Brittonic P-Celtic on the east side of the 
country, probably by the time Bede was writing his Ecclesiastical History in the 
730s22. It is an interesting point in connection with the argument as to how 'real' 
the eastern Border or *East March' was that throughout the coastal plain of English 
Northumberland, between Tyne and Tweed, place-names of Celtic origin are 
comparatively rare, and names of English origin predominate23. North of the 
Border, however, the proportion of Celtic place-names increases markedly, 
although in Berwickshire the bulk of actual settlement names are Old English24. 
Inland from the coastal plain both south and north of the Border, the proportion of 
pre-Anglian P-Celtic place-names is appreciably higher25. But even in this hill 
country it seems to be the case that P-Celtic names have survived more successfully 
in the Scottish counties of Roxburgh, Selkirk and Peebles than in west Nor¬ 
thumberland (i.e. Redesdale, North and South Tynedale, West and East Allendale 
and Hexhamshire)26. By the twelfth century we can be pretty sure that a virtually 
single, undifferentiated dialect of Old English prevailed (or was in practice 
universal) from East Lothian southward to the River Wear: a story told of the siege 
of Wark Castle on the Tweed in 1296 turns on the identity of language among 
Scots defenders and English attackers27.
