It's a recognised ascent from Wainwright's books, but most walkers reach this fell by other routes - none of which are Roman roads.
YB, I can see the resemblance to Steeple when approaching from Scoat Fell, but I'm making a direct ascent, and the photo's not a mirror image.
Peter, I can see where you're coming from, but it's not where I'm going - I'm interested to know what the second of your two choices is.
