Abstract:		 Report on an excavation at Amberfield, Burgh by Sands, in 2002, approximately 200m to the south of Hadrian's Wall and Burgh II. A considerable settlement of later second- to third-century date, believed to be part of the vicus, had been identified immediately to the east by previous archaeological investigations. Features excavated included a well, four deep pits interpreted as post-pits for a substantial building lying mainly to the north of the excavation area, postholes and beamslots relating to timber buildings, and shallow ditches and gullies which appear to be boundary features. Finds from the site are consistent with the interpretation of the site as part of the vicus, and dated its occupation to the second half of the second century. The implications for the dating of the Burgh II fort are discussed. Includes
