Abstract:		 The archaeological watching brief provided information about the condition and depth of archaeological deposits in and around the village of Bowness. The line of the eastern defences of the stone fort was confirmed, whilst the probable earthen rampart in trench 4 may have been part of the hitherto unknown eastern defences of the earlier turf and timber fort. Much of the interior of the fort appeared to have suffered considerable disturbance in the post-Roman period. Records of clay-and-cobble foundations provided information on the internal layout. Few medieval deposits were noted, although the presence of a number of (admittedly undated) ditches within the area of the fort hinted at a possible post-Roman re-defence of the site. [Au(adp)]
