Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Presents a survey of the communications systems along the Antonine Wall, which apparently differed from other frontier defences in this respect. The study cannot be comprehensive as the bulk of installations along the Wall are not known, and knowledge of the system's basic anatomy is poor. The author nevertheless visited all known or suspected sites on the Wall and compiled a list of every other Roman installation each could see, from its full likely original height. The intervisibilities cited here have all been confirmed in the field, except for a few in built up areas, which were checked using 1:5000 scale maps. There are details of the forts, milefortlets, turrets, the signalling system, and secondary signalling system. | |||||
