Abstract:		 The site contained what appeared to be a major civilian settlement, with possible military elements related to the fort of Derventio and its already extensive civilian settlement situated approximately 400m to the north of the site. The make-up of the settlement was very mixed and appeared to contain typical civilian (vici) timber buildings located within small enclosures, as well as signs of small-scale industrial activity and more extensive structures with possible military connections. The most spectacular of these buildings was undoubtedly the water mill and its associated mill race, which is one of the most complete examples as yet recorded in Britain. Other features of note were a possible early marching camp and an intriguing circular feature measuring approximately 60m in diameter, the function of which still requires explanation. Taken as a whole, this site combined with what was already known about Papcastle, would make it one of the largest Roman settlements within northern frontier, with an approximate area of 23 hectares.
