Mumps Hall
Mumps Hall was a seventeenth-century inn on the Cumbrian side of Gilsland. It has become famous because Walter Scott used its evil reputation, and that of its landlady Tib or Meg Mumps (based upon Margaret Teasdale) in his novel Guy Mannering. The inn is not named in the novel, but Scott revealed his use of its reputation in the notes he added to the Magnum Opus edition of his Waverley novels. The building he described was not, however, the present-day Mumps Hall.

Poltross Burn
The Poltross Burn is a tributary of the River Irthing. The burn rises on Denton Fell and flows north-east, joining the Irthing at Gilsland. The well preserved Roman Milecastle 48, known locally as The King's Stables, stands on the west bank. A 19th. century water mill within the village ground corn using the burn as a source of power.
