Page 151:- "... In each barony we find two wards, being districts of the like number of high-constables,
who presided over the wards to be sustained at certain fords and other places for
repelling plundering parties out of Scotland. ... two in the bottom [Barony of Appleby]
called East and West wards. There was antiently a middle ward between the two last,
but since watching and warding ceased it has fallen into the other two."
