Abstract:		 Investigations in 1958-63 of the fort's defences, annexe and bath-house confirm the three phases of construction - Agricolan, Trajanic and Hadrianic - indicated by Richmond, though the structural sequence and dating of the bath-house are uncertain. Pottery now suggests military occupation well after 122; the fort was reduced in size under Hadrian (when its NE quarter was walled off) and only one of its barrack blocks was rebuilt in stone. Its earthen ramparts were not replaced by stone defences. In mid-2nd cent its importance overshadowed that of nearby Castleshaw and was probably related to Brigantian unrest. But while the final withdrawal was probably linked with the Antonine advance, the civilian settlement - larger than previously thought (though little excavated) - was, on pottery evidence, occupied to at least the end of 2nd cent.
