It is situated on the B5301 road between the towns of Aspatria and Silloth-on-Solway. The village of Mawbray is located three miles to the south-west, and the village of Abbeytown is located three-and-a-half miles to the north-east. Carlisle, Cumbria's county town, is located 21-and-a-half miles to the east. History and etymologyThe name "Pelutho" is derived from the Old Norse pil-oat-haugr, meaning "peeled-oats hill". In the past, the name has been written in several different forms, including Pellathow, Pellothoe, Pollathow, Pellithow, and Pelato.[1] During the Roman period, the area around Pelutho was fortified. A series of milefortlets were constructed beyond the western end of Hadrian's Wall to defend against incursions across the Solway Firth. Two of these, milefortlets 13 and 14, are located within two miles of Pelutho, near the hamlets of Blitterlees and Beckfoot respectively. Local attractions and amenitiesPelutho is a small hamlet, and has no amenities of its own. There are two attractions in the vicinity, the Gincase is a farm park and tearoom located near to the hamlet of Newtown,[2] and Bank Mill Nursery is a garden centre, nature reserve, and restaurant near to Beckfoot.[3] There is a public house, called The Lowther, in the village of Mawbray,[4] and two shops in Abbeytown, three-and-a-half miles to the north-east. No public transport services are available in Pelutho; the nearest railway station is at Aspatria, five-and-a-half miles to the south-east, and the nearest bus stop is at Beckfoot, three-and-a-half miles away by road.[5] References{{Commons category|Pelutho}}1. ^{{cite book|last1=Holme St. Cuthbert History Group|title=Plain People: Bygone Times on the Solway Plain|date=2004}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=The Gincase|url=http://gincase.co.uk}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Bank Mill Nurseries|url=http://www.bankmillnurseries.co.uk|accessdate=12 January 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=The Lowther at Mawbray|url=http://mawbraypub.co.uk|accessdate=12 January 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Reays - City Hopper 60|url=http://reays.co.uk/Corporate/60.aspx|accessdate=12 January 2015|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141226204720/http://reays.co.uk/Corporate/60.aspx|archivedate=26 December 2014|df=}}
