The name Castle Crag implies the possible location of a castle or Hillfort. (Lake District National Park HER)

Gatehouse Comments

The name only implies a prominent crag with a form vaguely reminiscent of a castle. This is exactly the sort of name given to natural features by local shepherds etc. to aid navigation. The location is impossible for either a medieval castle (of any form) or a pre-historic hillfort.
