As far as possible the routes kept to unenclosed uplands but were defined by walls in cultivated districts. The last cattle were transported in this fashion in the early 20th century. By this time, railways and steam ships offered a quicker, less tiring alternative. This map was adapted, with additions, from A.R.B. Haldane's map, which also showed routes from north-east Scotland and through Galloway and the Borders. Resource pack   1     2     3     4
