About  Croydon   

Cumbria is located in the North West of England. The County boundary is naturally defined by the Irish Sea to the West, from the Solway Firth to Morecambe Bay, with the Scottish border to the north and the Pennine hills to the east. In it's history Cumbria has been a fortified and disputed land. The Romans used Cumbria as a military mustering area for incursions into Scotland, and also to protect more southerly settlements. Roman fortification culminated in the construction of Hadrian's Wall, an 80 mile long defensive structure with forts, ditches, encampments and watch towers. Hadrian's Wall runs from Newcastle upon Tyne in the East to Bowness on Solway in the west, effectively connecting these two coasts, separating England from Scotland and was built between AD122 and AD138. The Romans left England and Cumbria in the 5th Century, leaving the county to an influx of Anglo-Saxon immigrants which in the end drove the indigenous population of Celts out of the fertile lowland plains.
