In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Hurtleton like this:
HURTLETON, a place a little W of Irthington, in Cumberland. Vestiges of the Roman wall are adjacent; the fosse of the wall and that of the vallum being distinct, and are here only 35 yards apart.
Hurtleton is now part of CUMBERLAND Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how CUMBERLAND has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Hurtleton itself, go to Statistics.
